Why is it feminine?
Galería is feminine because it derives from the Latin "galeria," which itself came from Old French "galerie" and ultimately traces back to Greek "galeré" (gallery/covered passage); in Latin, words ending in "-ia" were typically feminine, a pattern that Spanish retained. The feminine gender stuck through the Romance languages despite the word's somewhat obscure etymology, possibly connected to architectural or nautical terminology.
