The Cultural Center of Spain Park (CCPE) is located in Rosario, Argentina, near the city's historical center, on the coast of the Paraná River. The park and cultural center together cover 10,000 m². The Spanish government funded the park as part of the celebrations for the 500th anniversary of the first European landing in the Americas. It was inaugurated in November 1992. The CCPE is more than just a building; it symbolizes the bond between Spain and Argentina, honoring the Spanish immigrants who arrived in Rosario in the late 19th century. The center was designed by Catalan architect Oriol Bohigas and Rosario architect Horacio Quiroga. The south facade of the cultural center features outdoor stairs that can seat up to 5,000 people for public shows. The complex also includes a partnership school established by the Spanish Ministry of Education and Science. The CCPE hosts a variety of events, including art exhibitions, film screenings, and live music. The center is committed to human rights, gender equality, and environmental defense. The complex includes a 500-seat theater, a conference room, art exhibition galleries, and a video library. The Parque de España Centre for Historical Studies and Information preserves documents on Ibero-American history.
