Parliament that exercises the legislative power of the Government of Catalonia
About
The Parliament of Catalonia is the unicameral legislature of the autonomous community of Catalonia. It has 135 members, known as deputies (diputats/diputados/deputats), who are elected for four-year terms or after an early dissolution, chosen by universal suffrage in lists of four constituencies, corresponding to the Catalan provinces. The Parliament building is located in Ciutadella Park, Barcelona.
Established in 1932, after the granting of self-governance to Catalonia by the Second Spanish Republic, it was in exile from 1939 to 1979 as a consequence of the Nationalist victory in the Spanish Civil War and was only formally reestablished during the transition to democracy. The most recent general election to the Parliament was held on 12 May 2024.
