Lonely Planet review for Palau del Lloctinent
The southwest side of Plaça del Rei is taken up by the Palau del Lloctinent, built in the 1550s as the residence of the Spanish viceroy of Catalonia and now home to part of the Arxiu de la Corona d’Aragón. This unique archive houses documents, from the 12th century onwards, detailing the history of the Crown of Aragón and Catalonia. Some of them appear in temporary exhibitions.
