Exhibition on the centenary of the Trasmediterránea Company
Trasmediterránea Company
From 27 January to 1 May 2017
Maritime Museum of Barcelona
The Trasmediterránea Company is celebrating its 100th anniversary with an exhibition at the Maritime Museum of Barcelona, designed to take visitors on a journey through its rich history. The exhibition will be open until May, and Barcelona was chosen as the venue because it is the company's founding port, serving as a “tribute to this significant location”.
The centenary exhibition is organised into four sections, each representing a different historical period in the company's evolution, distinguished by the chimneys of the ships typical of that era. It features models of the various vessels used over the past century.
The exhibition uses material from the Maritime Museum, the Port of Barcelona, the company and even some private individuals. A book with six hundred photographs has been specially published, as the company's shipping history coincides with that of the State.
The Port of Barcelona collaborated by lending the exhibition its Ciudad de Barcelona model.
