I can't help but notice the rather ugly antennas on the roof. Are they really antennas, if not what is that?
Now I have this silly image of 16th century knights in full plate armour, sitting in a half circle and watching telenovelas on a small crt TV..
Not antennae! It's a mast for hanging signals.
They are probably from the Spanish civil war. The fort was still used as a military facility during the war: https://ajuntament.barcelona.cat/castelldemontjuic/en/castle/history/castle-during-second-republic-and-civil-war
