IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
Fotografia feta amb la Hasselblad 500 C/M, fabricada el 1979; objectiu Carl Zeiss Planar f2,8/80mm; Ilford FP4+.
La anomenada "Illa Raspall" és una conjunt de xalets d'estiueig d'estil modernista de La Garriga. Reben aquest nom a que foren construides per Manuel Joaquim Raspall. Les cases en questió son la Casa Barraquer, Casa Reig (La Bombonera), Villa Iris i Casa Barbey, segurament la més impressionant.
Aquesta torre correspon precisament a la Casa Barbey, construida el 1910.
