Granada Conference Center
In the 90s, the mayor of the city of Granada, Antonio Jara, decided to launch the Granada Palace of Congresses and thus start a phase of economic growth. The building was inaugurated by the kings of Spain on April 19, 1992, the year of the Barcelona Olympic Games and the Universal Exhibition of Seville.
From the first day it has become one of the historic buildings of the city of Granada. Juan Daniel Fullaondo, one of the great architects of the twentieth century in Bilbao, is the architect who designed the project of the building together with Mª Jesús Muñoz and José Ibáñez. The Palace of Congresses of Granada is one of his emblematic works, the proportions of the palace and its orientation are designed to look at both the Alhambra and the Sierra Nevada from different perspectives.
