The venue
In the Raval, the Reial Acadèmia de Medicina de Catalunya stands as a key neoclassical landmark in Barcelona. Designed by Ventura Rodríguez and built between 1762 and 1764, this building housed the Royal College of Surgery and was the birthplace of medical training. Its 18th-century circular anatomical amphitheater, under a spherical dome with baroque details, features a marble dissection table and rococo seating — remnants of historical surgical practice. Declared a Cultural Asset of National Interest, this space is a benchmark in Catalan healthcare history, having hosted figures like Santiago Ramón y Cajal.
