Vilumara family pantheon

This 19th-century Eclecticist-style pantheon was the work of master builder Domènec Balet i Nadal and occupies plots 84 and 85 of the second department of the Poblenou cemetery.

The style is eclecticism, as a mixture of historical elements, more specifically the neo-Egyptian aspect, a popular force for the funerary field. It is enough to mention the main facade of this cemetery designed by Antonio Ginesi (1789-1824) that uses the profile of a false pyramid on three stone steps. The architectural structure of the pantheon reminds us of the mastabas due to its frustoconical shape but with a superior finish usual in classic funerary steles. We find this Greco-Latin reminiscence with the veiled urn that culminates the set. The papyrus leaf-shaped windows that can be found in other pantheons of the eclectic Poble Nou complex stand out.

This project was also presented at the exhibition held in Barcelona in 1896.
