    The breakwater, former Dic de l'Est del Port de Barcelona, designed in 1859, built in 1914 and which remained until the opening of the new mouth in 2003, constitutes an element rooted in the memory of the citizens. The proposal contemplates the musealization of its spaces where the story wants to remember what was there in the last 100 years.
    Given that the breakwater was a civil structure on a scale much larger than human, ad hoc strategies have been used to its dimensions that are capable of representing and making us understand what its magnitude meant. A series of pieces and elements installed in an integrated manner throughout the area evoke the history of the place through the in situ experience of what the breakwater meant.
    The proposal seeks to invite the user to reflection and experiential recreation, taking advantage of the exceptional opportunity that the enclave itself represents, being the support of its own content and telling the story from where it happened.
