Located in the former monastery of Saint Augustine, it offers an immersion into the world of chocolate, from its nutritional and medicinal qualities to its role in military rations in the 18th century. Founded by the Provincial Confectionery Guild of Barcelona, the museum aims to preserve and pass on the history and traditions of chocolate production.
