A building with an array of different styles due to the many modifications that it has undergone over the years. The oldest work dates back to the end of the twelfth century. It is Romanesque in style and still retains its arched twin-columned gallery that leads on to the courtyard. The very same courtyard has some Gothic elements such as its 15th century windows. The 18th c. façade that faces onto the Plaça Nova is by Josep Mas and has a series of wooden galleries. The last work on the building was carried out in 1928, when the Plaça Garriga i Bachs façade was built.
