Galleries in Barcelona?

Question

I'm going to Barcelona in a week, and i doubt i'll be doing much cultural stuff as my mates aren't into that :p

Other than the MACBA and the Picasso Musuem, what other galleries are unmissible? And i've already seen all the Gaudi and i don't feel the need to see it again.

Answer 1

You should see the Picasso Museum (C/ Montcada 15-23).  It has a great collection of his early works (i.e. his famous Blue Period).  There's also a great tapas place across the street called Xampanyet.

The Maritime Museum (Av Drassanes) is also really cool.  A great exhibition of Spain's awesome nautical history.

Answer 2

I also recommend the "Fundacio Joan Miro". Very nice museum  in a really nice location in the park on a high hill overlooking the city.

Answer 3

If you pay the entrance fee for La Pedrera, there is usually a gallery space included in the ticket (1st floor) which often has some cool stuff.

Other than galleries, some hidden gems are Sant Pau del Camp in the Raval - oldest church in Barcelona, and the Palau de la Musica Catalana over in La Ribera.

Answer 4

You should still check in at Sagrada Familia, just to see the progress since the last time you were there.  

We liked the Miró museum (near the Olympic village - swimming pools, on Montjuic).  And the Chocolate museum...not exactly art, but really different, and interesting...sculptures in chocolate.  Also, in Figueres, there is a not to be missed museum of Dalí.  TOTALLY cool!

Answer 5
