Parlament de Catalunya Review

First time I visited Parliament and it was a very interesting experience

A great place from the point of view of local patriotism.

The Parliament Building of Catalonia is located in the Parc de la Ciutadella in Barcelona.
It can be visited at specific times that you can find on the web.
It is a highly recommended visit, both for the official status of the building and its architecture.
For people from outside Barcelona, make sure you access and combine your visit with other nearby attractions, such as the ZOO and El Born. The whole area is ideal for walking enjoying the surroundings

A building that deserves to be visited. It has well-decorated ceilings and art on all walls

The other day with our exchange partners we went to visit the Parliament of Catalonia where they gave us an inside look. It looked like a royal palace. We enjoyed every corner of Parliament. Although politics I do not know much surprised me that it was completely empty because the news is always full and with people discussing different issues.

I really liked the design of the building and it is always good to know a bit of Catalan culture. I highly recommend it to visit.

Political center of Catalonia located in old insralations destined for the oppression of the Catalan people. Of great beauty and majesty contained.

Imposing building of the Catalan courts surrounded by a unique framework.

Let's see if any of those who work here explain to me the inconsistency of some laws; a person for stealing a jacket of 400 euros is charged with a crime; In addition to a neighbor of mine, squatters have entered the apartment, they steal the floor worth 200,000 euros, they are undervaluing the floor selling everything that was inside the sofa, radiators furniture ect and the police do nothing; let's see if someone explains all this to me

The building that occupies the Parlament de Catalunya is located within the Parc de la Ciutadella. It has a height of two floors, rectangular in shape and that can be visited on certain dates.

Good place to visit with children. So they begin to see the world of politics

A benchmark in Catalan culture and democracy. Do not miss the visit of the interior if you have occasion. Just awesome

Ask for a prior appointment and a guide explains the visit.

Magnificent building and surroundings precious symbol of the democracy of our country

A green oasis in the middle of the city and near the sea

Center of the Catalan legislative power. Building built between 1716 and 1748, by order of Philip V.

Superbonito! We were on a free guided tour and I highly recommend it. Once you pass through the entrance control, you enter an ideal world. When they tell you that it used to be a powder keg, it seems incredible. You can request the visit through its website and visit a piece of history ...

Amazing historic building with great gardens. Very recommended!

It is the largest delicatessen in the Region. Beautiful on the outside, the chorizos are inside.

There were attempts in the early 20th century to institute an autonomous system of representation for Catalonia. The Commonwealth of Catalonia (1914 25) was an assembly without legislative powers of the provincial delegations of Barcelona, More

Interesting building. The park in front of it is not as clean as I would expect.

One of the historical buildings of our country, being the headquarters of the Catalan Governance, and with a classic decoration spitting.

Old dustbin of the military citadel that became a park.

from arsenal of weapons to arsenal of ideas ..... much more important, always, that weapons.

When strolling around in Barcelona you should visit this place.

Me ha gustado mucho y ya que te encuentras en el parque, no te cuesta nada visitarlo

Large building with a high historical content. You can visit it for free by requesting an appointment to the Parliament website.

It is considered one of the oldest Parlaments in the world. It's worth visiting if you like history.

a palace that used to be a barracks built after 1714, recalls that of the deputies, the chamber stands out for its smallness and narrowness, I went with the school the only thing I remember was the lamp of the chamber

The history of the Palace where the Parliament of Catalonia is located, is a neoclassical building, from the year 1717 and the architect was Joris Prosper Van Verboom.
In 1868, when Ciutadella was demolished as a military fortress to convert it into a park, only three buildings were left standing: the Governor's House, the Castrense Church and the Arsenal (now the Palau del Parlament de Catalunya).


In 1939 Franco turned the Palau into a dungeon.
In 1945, it was transformed into the Museum of Modern Art.
Finally, in 1980 he reconverted into the Palau del Parlament de Catalunya, the President who returned from exile Josep Taradellas.

I have visited it for the symbolic value that I have for Catalonia, but it does not seem to me that it is architecturally attractive.

Parliament of the Catalan government. Historic site of the city of Barcelona.

It is a wonder if not it would be governed by imdependents

Despite living here all my life has never been. Great visit!

Building that is part of the history, society and politics of our country.

CENSURE MOTION NOW, WE WANT ELECTIONS WITH A UNIQUE CONSTITUTIONAL PARTY

The Palau del Parlament de Catalunya or Palace of the Parliament of Catalonia is located in the Parc de La Ciutadella and is the seat of the Parliament of Catalonia, located in Barcelona, it was built between 1717 and 1727, as an arsenal of the old fortress of Ciutadella, by the designer Jorge Prosperous Van Verboom.
After Ciutadella was demolished in the middle of the 19th century, the building was used for various purposes, including a barracks, a royal palace and an art museum, the palace was also a meeting point for the Catalonian Parliament from 1932 to 1939, when it was dissolved during the Spanish Civil War and after the reestablishment of Parliament in 1980, the palace was restored and once again became the seat of Parliament.

A historic building, very well preserved and headquarters of an important Catalan institution, representing the people of Catalonia.

The guided tour is very complete, with an employee of the institution, with extensive knowledge and that solves all the questions that are asked with kindness.

It is worth the visit, both for the location (Parc de la Ciutadella), as for the building and its history, as well as for what the institution and its operation represents.

Total ease for booking through web and free visit.

Totally recommended.

We have booked a guided tour, we are enormously grateful. The guide cleared all our doubts. Do not miss it!

Authentic monolithic building with a rocky character like an impregnable fortress like the French Bastille.

It was very good. I liked the explanations and the guide was great.

Very interesting building to visit for its interior architectural diversity. It is interesting to be able to take a guided tour to get better information from every corner of Parliament. The hemicycle is quite small in comparison to how it looks from the TV.

Sempre tancat. El dia de portes obertes les cues desincentiven la visita. Edifici singular a visitar almenys una vegada.

The palace is built in the shape of a cross, with a dome in the center and four courtyards. It used to be an old arsenal
Ciutadeli, built between 1717 - 1727 by Jorge Prospero de Verbum. The city authorities in 1889 decided to turn it into a royal palace. The city architect Pere Falke carried out work on adapting the building to a new idea ... Then there was a museum, then the barracks of General Franco, then museum squares again ... And finally, in 1980, with the restoration of the parliament, the palace was renovated, and he again became a parliamentary house (plenary sessions of parliament are held here).

Guided tour very interesting. And a building that is worth visiting. It is also free.

I had been to this place without knowing it was the parliament. I guess this is the price for not having a guide. But a parliament inside the park, just wow.

Excellent place to visit, you will learn a little about the Catalan culture, a very beautiful building inside. I recommend it
