Unveiling a hidden gem within Collserola Natural Park. That’s the Font de Sant Ramon. This fountain offers a glimpse into local history.

The Font de Sant Ramon sits at 300 meters above sea level. It is nestled in the area of Santa Maria de Vallvidrera, just below Villa Molitor. Its name comes from the land’s former owner when it was built.

The Font de Sant Ramon is more than a simple water source. It is a multi-faceted construction of considerable size. A brick structure stands above all other elements. Here, a mosaic displays an image of the saint. Sadly, it is now quite deteriorated.

The brick house is topped with a vaulted roof. This too is made of brick. Below the house lies the spring itself. A locked iron door secures it.

From the spring, a copper pipe dispenses water. Note that the water is not potable. It flows into a small pool with a central stone. Stone steps lead down to the pool and the spring’s opening.

The Font de Sant Ramon is a testament to local heritage. It reflects the traditions of Collserola Natural Park. While the mosaic fades, the spring continues to flow. It offers a tranquil spot. The Font de Sant Ramon connects visitors to the past.
