Palau de la Música Catalana
The Palau de la Música Catalana is the concert hall that Lluís Domènech i Montaner designed for the Orfeó Català, inaugurated in 1908. Stained glass, mosaics and sculptures cover the façade and interior, and it is the only concert hall declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is still in full use: it hosts the concert season, the Orfeó Català choirs and activities for families and schools, and in the mornings it opens its spaces to visits.
How to visit
Visits leave every day from 9:00 to 15:30 and last about 50 minutes. You can go with a guide, in six languages, or independently with a leaflet or audio guide. They pass through the Concert Hall, the monumental staircase, the foyer and the Sala Lluís Millet. There are themed routes, small-group visits and combined tickets with La Pedrera or with the Sant Pau Modernista site. Because the hall works daily, some space may be closed on the day of your visit.
The building has lifts to all floors, a stairlift in the foyer, adapted toilets and wheelchair loan. In the foyer are the Cafè Palau, open every day from 9:00 to 24:00, and the shop.
