The facility, which is to be called 'Y Gaer', is scheduled to open next year.
Features will include a refurbished museum, a new library, an art gallery and community facilities.
The 'Y Gaer' name was chosen from a selection provided through public consultation and following in-depth discussions with partners and a range of stakeholders.

Cllr Rachel Powell said: "Choosing a name for such an important facility could not be taken lightly since it will be in place for many years to come. The name was chosen from a shortlist provided by the public and partner organisations in the town and surrounding area and we feel it is ideal for the new centre.
"We sincerely hope that Y Gaer - Museum • Art Gallery • Library will become an important feature in the future of Brecon’s economic and cultural well-being. Visitors to the town will see that work on the project is accelerating and will reach an important construction milestone later this month with the topping out ceremony."
