Génesis y desarrollo de los cuatro centros parroquiales del polígono de Coya (Vigo, 1953-1981)

Abstract

This article tells the story of the four parish centers of the Coya polygon (Vigo), a significant part of the city which, despite having been designed in the fifties, was not finished until well into the eighties. During this time, the parish centers were transcending their liturgical function, and through open architectures that suffered a variation of its programs, economic scarcity and social fluctuations, collaborated on the new urban tissue stitched with the existing city. Today, they continue to make to Coya good part of their identity.
