It's part Albergue, part emergency social lodging, but a new well-placed Albergue has been opened at Terrassa, between Barcelona and Montserrat, placed also at one of the junction points between the Camí Catalàn routes from the more northerly coast (Llançà, Lloret, etc.) or the French border (Perpignan > Perthus pass or coastal, etc.), and the Camí Catalàn from Barcelona towards either Huesca > Puente La Reina, or Lleida > Zaragoza > Logroño.

This adds several good route options for the Camí Catalàn routes from the French border & nearby, where Albergues are few and far between, though it does mean pilgrims coming from France or Llançà would have to choose between the Terrassa variant or the Manresa one, and waymarking info is still too hard to come by online or by app for the Girona > Terrassa section (especially between Girona and Sant Celoni).

Thank you @JabbaPapa. Two years ago this would have saved me taking a train back to an AirBnB in Sant Cugat and then training again to Terrasa. The albergue is located at the fork of the Y in the park that I remember the Barcelona-Montserrat camino took me too.
