About
The Pedralbes Monastery cloister opens its doors on summer evenings, offering free access to one of the world's largest Gothic cloisters. Built in 1327 by Queen Elisenda de Montcada, the three-story cloister showcases Catalan Gothic architecture with spacious, harmonious proportions. Only the cloister is accessible during these hours; exhibitions and adjoining rooms remain closed.
