Original plate is preserved in the shelter lobby Avenue Tibidabo is one of Barcelona areas where the bourgeoisie has historically shown their economic and artistic taste with stately homes and mansions of the refined aesthetic. This was the case of Mr. Andres Salvador and Grau, more popularly koreasat 5 known as "Dr. Andrew "famous inventor of pharmaceutical tablets that received its name, which the house was built by the architect Enric Sagnier in 1926.
This palace, located in Avenida Tibidabo No. 17 (now its Mutua Universal), beyond the history koreasat 5 that can be any bourgeois house in the first half of the twentieth century unknown with a surprise, a surprise that in fact did years because I wanted to tell you a good video so worth it.
And here's the surprise: This building hides an underground bunker which was almost untouched during the Civil War consulate of the Soviet Union, after he moved here coming from a room at the Hotel Majestic room.
To protect the bombing walls have a thickness of 40 cm with a strong cast iron door and one emergency exit, toilets, bedroom, kitchen and independent generator. It also retains the original plate that was the entrance to the consulate and a Soviet flag.
