Inside the castle, we will learn about its history over the centuries, both as a defensive fortification and a military prison. The castle offers some of the best panoramic views of Barcelona. Here, visitors have time to admire the landscape and take photographs. Our next stop will take us to one of Barcelona’s cultural wonders, the Palau de la Música. The visit begins at the façade of the Palau, where we will learn about its history and architecture. Designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner, the Palau is a leading example of Catalan modernism, and was inaugurated in 1908.

The façade, with its colourful mosaics, sculptures and glass elements, is a prelude to the artistic richness of the interior. Upon entering, visitors are greeted by the impressive foyer and main staircase. This space is decorated with mosaics, stained glass and sculptures depicting musical figures. The heart of the Palau is its concert hall, renowned for its spectacular design and exceptional acoustics. Highlights include the organ, the stage and the impressive ceiling chandelier. One of the most outstanding elements is the glazed part, including the impressive stained glass ceiling window, known as the ‘inverted sun’. This design allows natural light to illuminate the room, creating a magical atmosphere. Conclusion on the Terrace or Cafeteria: Conclude the visit on the terrace or cafeteria of the Palau. The Palau is located in the heart of the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, ​​​​and we recommend that you continue the TOUR on your own, and get to know the city at your leisure.
