The Carillon of the Palau de la Generalitat has 49 bronze bells, weighs 4,898 kilos and covers a tonal extension of four chromatic octaves. The number of bells gives it the category of concert carillon. It was built by the Petit & Fritsen house, in Aarle-Rixtel (Netherlands), and was inaugurated in 1976, a few months before the restoration of the Generalitat de Catalunya. This new carillon replaced the small carillon from 1927. The Carillon of the Palau offers auditions to listen to in the streets of the Gothic Quarter, and concerts that can be heard from inside the Palau de la Generalitat and, of course, from the streets around the Palau.
During the month of July the concerts of the Barcelona International Carillon Festival are offered, where you can listen to the works performed by virtuosos of this instrument, from all over the world.
