Barcelona is one of the cultural hubs of Europe and exploring art is one of the best things you can do in the city.
Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya tickets are a premier interest for contemplating historic and contemporary art, taking you on a journey through time and tradition.
The museum showcases one of the best collections of romanesque church art and Catalan art in the world. The palatial building is a work of art in its own right and offers panoramic views over Barcelona from its hilltop perch.

The Romanesque collection is the museum’s pride and joy. You will admire several pieces from the 11th and 12th centuries which were all rescued from churches, including frescoes, wood paneling and stone carvings. “Apse of Sant Climent de Taull” by the Master of Taull is the most notable piece and dates back to 1123 A.D.
The gothic collection spans from the 13th to the 15th centuries and takes you on a journey through Spanish conquests of Europe as seen by artists.
The modern art collection is a fascinating juxtaposition to all of this with exhibits including The Rise of the Modern Artist, Modernisme, Noucentisme, Art and Civil War, and the Avant-garde Revival of the Post-War Years.
The Palau Nacional building is an imposing piece of architecture with dozens of intriguing spaces and angles. To top it all off you get access to the rooftop viewpoints, offering 360-degree vistas of Barcelona.
