In addition, guided face-to-face tours and virtual visits to the City Hall are available all year round. Find out more!

Historical characters

The tour of the building begins at the door in C/ Ciutat (Gothic façade) and, to liven things up, several historical characters will be greeting visitors in the City Hall's noble chambers.

Fourteenth century chronicler Ramon Muntaner will comment on the paintings by Josep M. Sert depicting the Almogavar troops’ campaigns in Greece, while Councillors Joan Fiveller and Rafael Casanova will be on hand to explain the history of the Saló de Cent. Maria Bosch, Rafael Casanova's wife, will talk about the tapestries and paintings by Sert located on the Escala de Honor.  Visits to the Saló de la Ciutat and Saló de Carles III rooms will be accompanied by harpsichord music.

Children’s show

A children’s puppet show will be offered with classic Catalan tales during the day, entitled En Patufet. Four sessions are scheduled: 11 am, 12 noon, 4 pm and 5 pm. At the end of each performance there will be a puppet workshop where children can make and personalise their own Sant Jordi knight puppet.
