Pont d'Amposta buys the former Metro nightclub to create a social and worship center
The Evangelical Church El Pont d'Amposta has acquired the Metro nightclub to convert it into a center for worship and social activities. This project involves an investment of 600,000 euros and aims to revitalize an abandoned space in the les Tosses industrial park.
With an area of 3,200 square meters, the new headquarters will feature an auditorium for 600 people and spaces dedicated to support programs for people with drug addiction and school reinforcement for children at risk of social exclusion.

The initial investment of 600,000 euros covers both the purchase and the rehabilitation works. The renovations will allow the space to be adapted for religious and social use, with a large auditorium and rooms for community activities.
The social project that the Evangelical Church wants to promote
What social activities will be developed there?
The center plans to develop a program aimed at people with drug addiction problems and school support activities for children from vulnerable families. This seeks to respond to local social needs and bring life to an industrial park with many empty spaces.
