Saint Thomas Aquinas

Sculpture of Saint Thomas Aquinas, by Pere Carbonell, 1890, located in a niche on the main façade of the Barcelona Conciliar Seminary.

The architectural layout of the Conciliar Seminary was carried out by the architect Elias Rogent and the building works began under Bishop Josep M. Urquinaona. The building was officially opened on 4 December 1904, though seminarians had been living there since 1882.
