PALAU DE LA MUSICA CATALANA

The Palau de la Música Catalana was built between 1905 and 1908 by the modernist architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner as the seat of the Orfeó Català, financed with funds from public subscription. The building is located in the Sant Pere district, one of the most beautiful areas of Barcelona. The Palau de la Música Catalana is an architectural pearl of Catalan modernism, the only concert hall declared World Heritage by UNESCO (December 4, 1997), which is currently an unavoidable meeting point for the cultural and social life of Catalonia . In addition, it has become a symbolic and sentimental heritage of an entire town that identifies with its history. The modernist building is articulated around a central metal structure covered with glass which, when receiving natural light, turns the most significant building of Domènech i Montaner's work into a magical music box where they combine all the applied arts: sculpture, mosaic, stained glass and forging. To be able to enjoy this masterpiece, the Palau de la Música Catalana offers guided tours , an unmissable appointment to get to know all the corners of this modernist jewel.
