Palau de la Musica
Catalana
Palau de la Musica Catalana is a concert hall and
is treated as an alternative for Teatre
del Liceu for performances. Built in the early
part of the 20th century, it was granted status as
a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with Hospital
de Sant Pau in 1997. The gorgeous concert hall
is the only auditorium in Europe that can be illuminated
by natural light during the day. This was done through
the extensive use of stained glasses and an inverted
dome simulating the sky and sun.

for a tour of Palau de la Musica Catalana. Opening
hours are from 10 a.m. to 3.30 p.m. with daily concerts
