The new Centre Martorell d’Exposicions (Martorell Exhibitions Center) in Ciutadella Park has (re)opened its doors. Originally inaugurated as the Martorell Museum in 1882, it later became the Geology Museum in 1924 but closed its doors to the public in 2010.
This recently renovated, historic building has become the second facility open to the public as part of the La Ciutadella Knowledge Hub. The center’s cultural activity will help bring science closer to the public and to bring to fruition the goal to convert the city’s oldest park and its surrounding area into a leading European hub of knowledge, outreach, research and innovation.
The center holds scientific exhibitions on natural sciences, topics with a strong social impact related to both the climate crisis and biodiversity, as well as the exploration of the current frontiers of knowledge.
