Audio Guide 

Opened in 1994, this is the first center in Europe dedicated to the study of the urban metropolis seen as a universal phenomenon which allows us to analyse the social, cultural and urban development of the city, as well as its history. The C.C.C.B. was built by the architect Piñón y Viaplana, on the site of the old Casa de la Caridad, a beautiful building of which a few original decorative elements remain. This is the main exhibition centre in Barcelona, located in the heart of the Raval district. Apart from courses and seminars, its program includes some of the most interesting cultural initiatives in Barcelona. It also has a café-restaurant and a gift shop.
