A new oval-shaped cellular shelter was designed by municipal architect Ricard Giralt Casadesús and built in 1938, with a total underground areaof 584.67 m² that was nearly as big as the gardens above it. The 357.86 m² of useable space (including corridor and steps) could provide protection for over 600 persons. For additional safety in the event of a direct bomb impact, the entire outside surface area was covered with a pyramid-shaped earth mound of about 2 metres high.
