Minor Seminary of Barcelona

The Minor Seminary of the Archdiocese of Barcelona was located from 1940 to 1998 in the area of La Conreria. Its official name was Diocesan Minor Seminary of Our Lady of Montalegre.
This institution was located shortly after the end of the Civil War in the old building of La Conreria, belonging to the monastery of the Charterhouse of Santa María de Montalegre. Conreria was the name given to the "casa de conreu" or farm of the Carthusian monasteries, and in fact, this building served such a function from the mid-15th century until 1835, when the charterhouse and its possessions were expropriated. In this same location, the convent of Augustinian nuns of Montalegre was founded around 1247, which moved to Barcelona in 1362. In 1415, the Carthusians of Vallparadís in Terrassa bought the building and founded a new monastery there, until in 1463 they settled in the current Charterhouse of Montalegre, whose construction had lasted almost half a century, leaving the old convent as a "conreria" and house for the brothers. During the time of the Carthusians, the building underwent various reforms and expansions, especially in 1568 and between 1790 and 1802.
