About Palau Martorell
Palau Martorell offers a different format to some of the more traditional museums and galleries in Barcelona, as it doesn't have a permanent collection, but focuses on temporary exhibitions held for limited periods.
Because it concentrates on rotating exhibitions, it has the ability to bring high quality art shows to Barcelona for limited periods, making it a strong choice for visitors who are looking for something fresh and new to enjoy in Barcelona's arts and cultural scene.
The award-winning building is very much part of the experience. It was constructed between 1886 and 1900 by architect Joan Martorell y Montells, and it originally housed the Sociedad de Crédito Mercantil. It won the city's annual Artistic Building competition soon after its completion in 1901. Its neoclassical architecture, symmetrical façade and interior courtyard make the building an attraction in its own right.
