City Hall of Barcelona, Municipal government building in Gothic Quarter, Barcelona, Spain

The City Hall of Barcelona presents a double architectural appearance, with a Gothic facade on Carrer de la Ciutat and a Neoclassical front on Plaça Sant Jaume.

The construction of the Barcelona City Hall commenced in 1369 with the Saló de Cent, which served as the meeting place for the Council of One Hundred.

The building contains the Saló de Cròniques, a grand hall decorated with murals depicting significant moments in Catalan medieval history by Josep Maria Sert.

The City Hall opens its doors to visitors every Sunday morning, allowing the public to explore the Gothic courtyard and the historic Saló de Cent.

The structure integrates parts of the medieval Roman wall of Barcelona, incorporating ancient defensive elements into its architectural design.
