The architecture of MUSAC, Museo de Arte Contemporaneo de Castilla y León, has become one of the Spanish projects with wide international recognition due to its winning in 2007 of the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture Mies van der Rohe Award and its participation on the exhibition On- Site: New Architecture in Spain, that the MoMA New York devoted to the most important recent architectural projects in Spain. The MUSAC also represented Spain at the Venice Architecture Bienal in 2004.
