Barcelona National Art Museum of Catalonia Entrance Ticket
Barcelona, Spain
Make your way to the National Art Museum (Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya) in Barcelona and enjoy the magnificent art on show. Head inside to view a vast collection of European art from the 11th to the 20th centuries and explore one of the world’s finest collections of Romanesque art and frescoes; admire masterpieces by Titian, Canaletto and Goya; and ogle the Modern Art collection including modernist furniture by Antoni Gaudí.
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. How long you stay in the museum is up to you, but many people find that three hours is sufficient.
This is an absolute MUST see. Get there early. The quantity as well as quality of Catalunyan art is fabulous and deeply impactful. Hint: Your ticket includes a trip up to the roof terrace. May I suggest you do that first, before the lines to the small elevator are long. Great views if you do the full roof top tour and don't just take the first exit down again.

Not much value added to just buying tickets at the desk. You still have to go to the ticket taker, who then refers you to a secondary ticket taker, who then wanted us to write down our email to send the electronic vouncher to, slower than just paying cash at the window.

Tickets not necessarily required. If you research, you can go for No Charge after a certain time of Day.

Very enjoyable visit to the gallery although menu prices at the restaurant are a bit much!

The grounds that the museum sits on is far more impressive than the art inside, in my opinion.

Voucher must be exchanged. Someone was at the front to direct people and answer questions. Seniors get in free. It was nice to see inside.
