Make your way to the National Art Museum in the beautiful National Palace on Montjuic Hill. Redeem your voucher at the ticket office and head inside to enjoy the art independently.
Opened in 1934, the museum houses a vast collection of Catalan, Spanish and European art that spans a period of roughly 1,000 years. The gallery includes works by Titian, Gainsborough and modernist masters such as Gaudí, too. Perhaps start with the museum's most famous treasures: its Romanesque frescoes. View the vivid artworks, many of which are displayed in recreated church interiors. Don't miss the eye-catching 12th-century Christ in Majesty that depicts a luminous Christ sitting on a rainbow. Explore the stunning Renaissance and baroque collections of paintings and sculptures from Europe between the 1400s and 1900s, with masterpieces by Canaletto, Titian and Goya. Another highlight is the Modern Art section, home to paintings, sculptures, posters and other art nouveau works by 19th- and 20th-century Catalan artists. The showpiece is a collection of Gaudí furniture that includes sinuous wood chairs and doors.

Der Anteil der gothischen und romanischen BIlder ueberwiegen hier eindeutig. Fuer Liebhaber der katholischen Kirche und entsprechender Gemaelde mag das hoechst interessant sein, fuer alle anderen eher sehr einseitig.

We loved this museum enough that we took advantage of their policy to let you come twice within a month on the same admission. The vast Romanesque art collection was breathtaking--stuff from the 10th-12th centuries, carefully peeled off obscure old churches in the mountains. Although there is some curation in English, there is quite a bit that is just in Catalan and Spanish. That said, the curation was imaginative and impressive. We also liked their exhibit about the civil war. Once you get off the subway, it is a 15 minute walk with helpful escalators to get you up to the top of the hill. Despite that, be aware that there are some steps to climb. The view of Barcelona from the museum is lovely. Good free wifi in the main lobby. Relative to other attractions--the Prado in Madrid, the Sagrada Familia--the ticket price was a bargain.

Be careful when booking through Viator. The gallery is free on the first Sunday of every month yet Viator charged me!!
