Aula Magna

Although in Rogent's design the space currently occupied by the Aula Magna was occupied by the Natural History Museum, it seems that this space was actually the now vanished Doctoral Lounge. Subsequently, during the 1940s, the room underwent considerable alterations directed by the architect Josep Domènech Mansana, son of another architect, Josep Domènech Estapà.
