Go to Montjuic to visit the Barcelona Pavilion, a work emblematic of the Modern Movement: just great! The Foundation Mies van der Rohe was set up in 1983 by the Barcelona City Hall with the initial purpose of reconstructing the German Pavilion, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886-1969) for the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition. Besides conserving and disseminating knowledge about the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion, this place today also fosters debate on and awareness of themes related to contemporary architecture and urban planning.

Learn about the Barcelona chair created by Mies van der Rohe for the same international Exhibition in 1929.
