Barcelona Museums




Barcelona CARRIAGE Museum


The Vall d'Hebron Park, in the north of the city, contains a thematic museum of extraordinary interest. This is a private collection comprising 46 exhibits including wagons and everyday and luxury barouches which, together with some 600 accessories, adornments and clothing used by carters and coachmen, give us an insight into a means of transport which is part of our history. The company Fomento de Construcciones and Contratas, SA owns the collection which has been brought together due to the initiative of the Piera family, whose company carried out street cleaning and refuse collection in the early 20th century.

CarMalaga.Com Tip: Barcelona Joan Miro Foundation

The Joan Miro Foundation (Centre for Contemporary Art Studies) opened to the public in 1975 and has been a constant reference point in the city's cultural life ever since. It houses the permanent collection of works by Miro, an artist who was able to create his own poetic universe and experimented with different genres : painting, sculpture, ceramics, graphic art, etc. The gleaming white building was designed by Miro's great friend, the architect Josep Lluis Sert, who created a structure with a markedly Mediterranean character.
