The Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona is a museum adjacent to the Barcelona Museum of Contemporary Art (MACBA). The building is a mixture of old and new styles, dating from 18th century up to recent renovation of a facade in the Plaça de les Dones.
The centre, one of the most visited museums in Barcelona, hosts temporary exhibitions, a cinema, concerts and other cultural events.
There are many reasons why this culture center in Barcelona is an unmissable visitor attraction. The building in itself is an architectural landmark: the "Casa de la Caritat", a former workhouse in the Raval district, which underwent a refurbishment programme earning it the FAD architecture prize.
The Centre de Cultura Contemporània hosts a broad programme of exhibitions about the most diverse aspects of contemporary art and culture. It also organises complementary activities which embrace a diversity of fields from music to dance, independent video to alternative cinema, performance to multimedia creations, Master's and post-graduate courses to international debates, and children's entertainments and theatre.
