Well worth the short ascension: the view from the terrace is brilliant (best enjoyed w/ a beer )! The restaurant serves a correct lunch , and the entrance to the museum is free on Saturdays after 3pm.

Visit the roof terrace for a panoramic view of the city . Follow the signage that says 'tour ' near the stairwell. It leads to the roof terrace where u get.glimpses of castle Montjuic & Olympic stadium .

Bubble

Comfortable couches , free wifi and excellent architecture at the ground floor! Take the elevator to the roof for a great view . They redesign the Modernism section now, they only exhibit a few pieces.

We spent the day. The view outside the top of the museum was breathtaking. We enjoyed all the Catholic art the museum offered. The architecture of the museum is as good as the art , as a former palace .

Rola Daher

I wish I had more time for this museum . It needs 2 full days if you want to observe and appreciate the art . Its a great learning experience for Art & History lovers.Spend at least a full day when u go
