Palaus d'Alfons XIII i Victòria Eugènia

The Palaus d'Alfons XIII i Victòria Eugènia consist of two symmetrical buildings featuring detailed craftsmanship and intricate decorative elements on their facades.

Architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch designed these palaces in 1923 as exhibition venues for the Barcelona International Exposition of 1929.

The palaces represent the architectural evolution of Barcelona during the early 20th century, combining various European design influences with local Catalan elements.

Located near public transportation in Montjuïc, the palaces currently function as exhibition spaces within the Fira de Barcelona complex.

The buildings flank the Four Columns square, creating a monumental entrance that leads visitors through a sequence of carefully planned exhibition spaces.
