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.
