About 'Palau de la Música Catalana'

The Concert Hall of Barcelona’s Palau de la Música Catalana is a magical space, conceived and designed as an enormous glass box crowned with a large central skylight. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997, the Palau de la Música Catalana ("Palace of Catalan Music") was built between 1905 and 1908. Catalan architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner designed the building, which was primarily funded by donations from the city’s bourgeoisie. The theatre's patrons encouraged Montaner to build a uniquely Catalan building to express their Nationalist sympathies. The architect engaged local craftsmen and artisans, who created the vivid ornamentation and sculpture which decorates the entire building.
