Virreina Palace

Very interesting place and what is surprising it is free of charge to look at exhibitions. Even it is something not ordinary it is interesting to see it

Palau de la Virreina is a palace along la Rambla that houses a museum. Entrance is free and the exhibitions change regularly. Have a look at what is on and enjoy the art. When last there, an exhibit dedicated to the Leeds Animation Workshop and a black-white photography exhibit were on, both quite interesting.

A little bar with so much to offer. Staff were just amazing. We have introduced them to picon beer and they did their best to cater for us. Just an absolutely splendid place!

Went in for a free exhibition. No fee or booking needed. There were beautiful sculptures, paintings, drawings and even the architecture itself is very beautiful and worth seeing.

Went in off the street on a Monday in January and discovered there's a free exhibition there. It had a mixture of films, sounds, paintings and so on, often intertwined together as part of the same exhibit to tell a story. I felt that most of the artists were fighting against oppression and violence, which resulted in many graphic pieces. There was, however, one booth where the artist put up pictures of standalone trees. Some on hills, some in the foreground of a forest, all in varying degrees being blown by the wind and the shakiness of the camera was propertionately affected by the wind. The exhibit seemed strangely out of place given its relative tranquility and I didn't make much of it at the time, but it's made me think how we're all shaped and affected by our respective environments.

Virreina Palace, located on La Rambla in Barcelona, is an 18th-century baroque building constructed between 1772 and 1778 for the viceroy of Peru, Manuel d'Amat i de Junyent. The palace features a grand facade with intricate carvings and a spacious courtyard. Today, it houses the Virreina Centre de la Imatge, hosting contemporary art and photography exhibitions, making it a significant cultural hub in the city.

Great venue to see multiple art exhibits, free. Really enjoyed discovering Amelia Reira and Marguerite Duras.

Beautiful building, Center of the Image and other events, free entrance don't missed.
