Parlament de Catalunya Review

Amazing historic building inside one of Barcelona's best parks

The Parliament represents the Catalan people and is therefore key to its political life, holding debates and taking decisions that affect the everyday lives of the people of Catalonia.

The Catalan parliamentary institution dates back to the Middle Ages, with the assemblies of pau i treva (peace and truce) and the Cort comtal (Court of counts).

The entrance is free, however, it needs to be booked in advance, at least two days before the tour starts.
The tours last forty-five minutes on average.

Very nice building, located in the Ciutadella park, near the zoo, between the metro stops L4 Barceloneta and Ciutadella Vila Olimpica

Was there on an excursion from the Catalan language school, but I heard that the excursion can be ordered online, free of charge. At the entrance they check things and documents. An unforgettable experience! You feel the atmosphere. The oldest parliament building in the world, with its own history.

Building located inside the Parc de la Ciudadela. Currently the Parliament of Catalonia is located, which is composed of 135 seats, elected by regional elections. It is where the political decisions of Catalonia lie. It can be visited on certain days

Good for a walk round. Nice features. Very clean and well looked after.

Before being the Parliament of Catalonia it was an arsenal, then it was renovated to be the Royal Palace, for Queen Maria Cristina. The queen did not want to settle there. It was museu until 1932. On this date it became the Parliament of Catalonia. During the dictatorship of Franco it was again museu. In 2004, the Parliament of Catalonia was definitely turned around. The visit is very good. I loved it. There are free guided tours on Saturdays (10-19h) and Sundays (10-14h).

Very nice old building. In front off nice park and zoo

Site that you have to visit sometime. Stately and elegant building. Seat of popular sovereignty. recommendable

Interesting building, an old arsenal converted into the seat of one of the oldest parliaments in Europe.

A very pleasant park for a romantic walk. Away from the bustle of Barcelona city. Parts easily accessible with a wheelchair!

The parliament of the Republic of Catalonia is a very beautiful building located in a beautiful place!

Very nice to see the parliament and the guided tour.

Building within the Ciutadella Park, very nice, that contains the seats of the deputies of the Generalitat de Catalunya. That now he is trembling a little since there is no president. There are guided tours on Saturdays. It must be given more historical importance than the political dispute has. Since that is to parley not to go out or to blows or coup plotters waiting with giant screens outside to change history

One of the largest institutions in our country.

It is worthwhile to know the building and its interior.

Historic building in the Citadel Park, which can be visited by the public during open days. Check web.

They don't agree at all and they charge us a fortune. They spend it screaming and doing nonsense that are of no use to us. Terrible service.

Parliament of Catalonia at Parc de la Ciutadella. Recommended visit

A beautiful building, but as usual, everything is protected. Don't come close

The Parliament of Catalonia, like most other European countries, apart from being the depositors of the popular will and where the Deputies, make a vacant job; They are old buildings, noble and of great historical and architectural value.
In the case that it deals with to us, he made these functions, from 1932 and, peculiarly in Century XVIII was used like Arsenal by the Castilian army.

Beautiful historic building in the heart of the ciutadella's park!

A wonderful place, worthy of popular representation in a democratic and social state of law.

Spectacular Parliament of Catalonia.

It is located in the Ciutadella Park in the beautiful city of Barcelona (Spain) between 1716 and 1748.

One of the places to visit in barcelona. Very beautiful the building and the citadel park. Must be visited

Emblematic place of Barcelona and Catalonia. A classic to visit for tourists.

On the outside it looks like another building in the park, so it is recommended to go on guided tours, since inside it is a more impressive building. The park where he is to walk is also appreciated, for what you earn for the gardens.

Nice and historic place. Must visit when traveling in Barcelona

The Palau del Parlament de Catalunya was built between 1717 and 1727, is located inside the Parc de la Ciudad and is the meeting room of the Parliament of Catalonia.

You can get 2 times a year, everything is beautiful inside, the staff is very friendly

Historic building, very well maintained and protected is the parliament of the Catalan Republic.

Pretty nice and do activities to go with the school that are very good.

The Parliament House of Catalonia has a very beautiful architecture. Unfortunately, we did not review it because of the short time.
Difficult days for Catalunya in October 2019. I wish it all end in a peaceful and no bloodshed.

Must see when you go to Barcelona. If you have the opportunity to visit your interior with a good guide do not miss it!

Because it is gorgeous and the place where Catalonia decides, despite the terrible origin of its construction and the role it played three centuries ago, we are now very proud of what it represents.

It is the Parliament of Catalonia !! Impressive building. It is next to the park of the Ciutadella.

Its interior is very beautiful, its halls, corridors, plebiscite, sculptures, paintings ...
Obligatory to book on the Web, the entrance + 1h guided is free. You can take photos.

The Palace of the Parliament of Catalonia (in Catalan, Palau del Parlament de Catalunya) is located in the Ciudadela Park, in Barcelona (Spain). It is the seat of the Parliament of Catalonia, an institution heir to the old Catalan Courts. The building was built as an arsenal for the old Citadel fortress, the work of Joris Prosper Van Verboom made between 1716 and 1748.

Located inside the Ciudadela park, you can take a guided tour.

There is a small park with play equipment nearby and I was playing there with my children. So I just looked at the appearance, but the red brick color and the natural green contrast were beautiful.

A very interesting visit, with a very didactic guide and also in my case, for me alone
