Former metro station in Barcelona, Spain

Quick Facts General information, Location ...

The station opened in 1934 as a terminus of a branch of the Gran Metro de Barcelona, Barcelona's first metro line. The Gran Metro de Barcelona came to be known as line L3 but Correos remained the terminus of a branch. The station was dismantled in 1972 to permit the extension of the line into La Barceloneta, as part of the integration of the branch into line L4.[1][2]

Along with Banco, it is one of the two metro stations on Via Laietana that have disappeared.[1]
