Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona

The Centro de Cultura Contemporánea de Barcelona is a public cultural institution in El Raval housing exhibition galleries, an auditorium, and event spaces. The building contains multiple rooms and halls designed to host shows, screenings, and gatherings of different sizes.

The building began as a provincial charity house in 1802 and served this purpose for more than a century and a half. At the end of the 20th century, architects redesigned it completely to create the cultural center as it stands today.

The center focuses on contemporary artistic expressions and experimental cinema that reflect how people think and live today. Visitors encounter current themes through exhibitions and film screenings that engage with modern society.

The center is open on several days of the week, giving visitors flexibility in planning their visit. It helps to check in advance if special events or closures might affect your preferred time.

The front facade is made of large glass panels that function as mirrors, reflecting the surrounding street and neighborhood back to passersby. This reflective quality creates an intriguing connection between what happens inside and the urban life outside.
