Description
Placed in an environment of pine trees and sea, this old clinic for the cure of tuberculosis is a singular work in the transition from academism to modernism. Still marked by a classic décor, the building highlights a three-dimensional reinforced concrete mesh, which configures the balconies for heliotherapy and gives it a start of the century climatic image. It was considered Public Interest Monument in 2013 and today it houses a school and a finance college, offering visitors a fresh air and sea side view experience.
