A history of the Palau de la Virreina
The baroque palace, located right on La Rambla, was built from 1772 to 1778 for the Peruvian Viceroy Manuel d’Amat.
In 1944, the palace became city property, and hosted a variety of museums over the years. In 1986, the city’s Cultural Council moved into the building, until it was re-opened in 2007 as "La Virreina Centre de la Imatge". It now hosts rotating exhibitions.
