History
In 1996, during the first constitutional term, a commission was created to design a new headquarters for the General Council of Andorra located in Casa de la Vall, which was too small to hold parliamentary sessions. The new parliament opened in 2011, and it was inaugurated by the Co-Princes of Andorra in 2014.
