CCK is one of the most emblematic architectural monuments in Argentina, declared a National Historic Monument. Originally called the Palace of the Post and Telegraphs, it was inaugurated on September 28, 1928, and designed by the French architect Norbert-Auguste Maillart. Its construction took almost 40 years. Once inaugurated, the Palace functioned as the operations center of the national post office. It was the place from where the first transmission of State Radio was made in 1937. It was the headquarters of the official radio for thirteen years, and the offices of the Eva Peron Foundation functioned there. In 2010, on the occasion of the celebrations for Argentina´s bicentennial anniversary, the building's restoration projects began with two central objectives: the preservation and enhancement of the historical building and the founding of a cultural center unmatched in Argentine history. 

Thus, in 2015, the CCK was born. It covers an area of 115.000 square meters and it has 10 venues inside. Its media archive holds the recordings of more than 60 concerts, 1,000 artists, 750 hours of content. It has the capacity to welcome 5000 daily visitors. Many world-class artists such as Martha Argerich, Daniel Barenboim and Susana Rinaldi have performed at the CCK.

The Argentine National Symphony Orchestra, which has taken up permanent residency at CCK, toured in the Music Festival of the Canaries in Spain, the São Paulo Campos do Jordão Winter Festival in Brazil, and its 50^th anniversary US-Japan tour.
