The Palau de la Musica Catalana is a concert hall in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Designed in the Catalan modernista style by the architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner, it was built between 1905 and 1908. From the outside, the building seamlessly blends old and new architectural styles like a living timeline. The largest and most well-known space in the Palau is the Concert Hall. This is a 2,146 seat venue with an ornate glass roof – the main setting for concerts and recitals. They also have a The Petit Palau is a smaller space – 538 seats, with a more modern feel.
We lucked out and bought tickets for a noon flamenco show in the Palau de la Musica. It was a great way to relax and see both flamenco and the Palau while beating the midday heat.
We also love this area for its food and close access to attractions. Check out the hotel we stayed in here.
