The building as a whole is made up of a series of pavilions occupying a space of one hectare, 29 ares and 93 centimetres. The monumental entrance to the complex is situated on the road to Juncadella (which leads to the square). On both sides of the gate there are two ground floor pavilions leading to a patio, which facilitates access to the other buildings (3 halls or pavilions dedicated to specific activities). There is also a large 15-metre high tower, which is a water reservoir.
The building was designed in 1904 but it was not until 1906 that the foundation stone was laid. The building was officially inaugurated in 1908.
