Europes largest brothel opens its doors in Catalunya: "Europe's largest brothel has opened it's doors in Gerona (Catalunya).
With 2,700 square meters of floor space, 80 private rooms and some 160 women available, the owners of the brothel boast that not only is it the largest in Europe, but also a safe and comfortable environment for prostitutes and their clients to relax. The brothel, called Paraiso, is located in the city of La Jonquera.
Gerona is famous for its brothels, as its proximity to France means a large number of French men cross the border to pay for sex, a practise that is illegal in France. It is estimated that almost 2,000 prostitutes work in La Jonquera's brothels, as well as many more in the street.
Brothels are not illegal in Catalunya, as the law considers them to be commercial establishments. A regional law regulates local brothels, establishing minimum working conditions for prostitutes.
However, the owner of Paraiso, José Moreno, has reportedly been arrested twice before in sex trafficking investigations in the region. Women pay around 80€ a day to use a room at the Paraiso and keep the difference.
'These women are all of legal age, who have entered this business knowingly and are legal in Spain' said Sr Moreno. 'They have applied for positions here, and are not employed by me or bound by any contract other than that of good conduct'."
