Barcelona City Council's publishing imprint presents a new website that highlights the extensive catalogue of books it offers on the city and people of Barcelona, and its own unique contribution to the dissemination of local knowledge.

We’ll be back with our usual annual stall with Barcelona Provincial Council for Catalan Book Week, which is being held at the Moll de la Fusta wharf from 8 to 17 September.

This book offers 170 previously unpublished pictures of air raid shelters from the Civil War in Barcelona which saved thousands of lives between 1937 and 1939

Rebellion and Stories of La Model

The wings of La Model Prison and the rent strike of 1931 are at the heart of the first two books in the new collection published by Barcelona City Council.

For the very first time, an atlas of the history of Barcelona is being published, with both pleasing visual content (including high-quality maps and photographs) and in-depth texts written by experts.

Llibre sobre transformacions de la ciutat 2015-2023

Survey Barcelona provides a perspective of the city and the various interventions on it that have taken place in recent years, through photography.
