Along 2009 was celebrated in Valencia the 100th anniversary of the Valencia Regional Exhibition of 1909. At that time, Valencia took the initiative to promote the city in search of greater prestige and following the model initiated by other major European cities (London, 1855, Barcelona 1888, Paris 1902). Once completed, the vast exhibition center was demolished with the exception of several buildings, between them this "Palacio de la Exposición".
