Fodor's Review:
No matter what's on the schedule, this multidisciplinary gallery, lecture hall, and concert and exhibition space is worth checking out. Housed in the restored and renovated Casa de la Caritat, a former medieval convent and hospital, the CCCB is, like the Palau de la Música Catalana, one of Barcelona's best combinations of contemporary and traditional architecture and design. A smoked-glass wall on the right side of the patio, designed by architects Albert Villaplana and Helio Piñon, reflects out over the rooftops of the Raval to Montjuïc and the Mediterranean beyond.
