Barcelona Pavilion
Barcelona Pavilion was designed by Mies van der Rohe,
a German who was a pioneer in modern architecture.
For that reason, the Barcelona Pavilion is also known
as Mies van der Rohe Pavilion or Barcelona German
Pavilion. The pavilion was built for the 1929 International
exhibition and was rendered useless and desasembled
after that. However, as the years pass by, people
began to recognise it as an architecture masterpiece
and hence rebuilt it in 1986. There are replicas of
the famous barcelona chair designed by Mies van der
Rohe and a beautiful pool in the pavilion.
The barcelona Pavilion is easily accessible by the
nearest metro station at Espanya. Admission feee is
4.50 Euros and is opened daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Guided visits in english are also avaliable from 5
p.m. to 7 p.m. on wednesdays and fridays.
