An oasis of peace in Barcelona
Monasteri Sant Pau del Camp is an oasis of peace in Barcelona, a marvellous little cloister (look for the frog at the foot of one of the original pillars). You are transported back in time in this little monastery of El Raval which once stood in the fields outside the walls of Barcelona, hence its name ... one of the wonders of Barcelona.

thanks for the tip
thank you for all this information, so we went there. A wonderful market with all the local products but not the tourists.

great local market
Covered market. Very pleasant with the smell of flowers at the entrance. There are tables and chairs in the aisles so you can eat there. Coffee and potato tortillas available.

Best interior shop of Barcelona
I came across the most incredible store i have seen in a long time and I have been living im Barcelona for over 20 years. It’s called Pachulí Interior & Lifestyle and is situated in El Born. It’s a bit hidden which is a shame cause I think everyone should experience this authenticity and unique place. Just go and check it out already!!

free and it's well worth a visit.
A fine venue for free photo exhibitions on La Rambla, in a peaceful setting away from the hustle and bustle of this grand avenue. Whether you're a photography enthusiast or an amateur, it's well worth a visit.

simple and cool to visit
As I only had a day to visit, it was a simple and efficient way. Great air-conditioning on the lower floor of the bus. Well-organised and friendly welcome.

for the Gaudi buildings
For the Gaudi buildings but not for the shopping... very nice shops like everywhere else in the world, no interest.

impressed by this brilliant creator
As I learned more about Antoni Gaudí's life while visiting his works, I was deeply impressed by his devotion to architecture and his unique artistic vision. He was a passionate man who devoted his life to creating extraordinary buildings.

  3. This museum is a treasure - Nat McCormick (3 Dec 2015 - 09:20)

    I found this to be one of the nicest experiences I had in Barcelona. The admission cost is extremely reasonable (especially compared to other local museums and attractions). The building is a place of great historical interest and of beauty, with the long stone vaults and wood ceilings. While the collection is not huge, I thought the exhibits, including ship models and drawings, small boats, and the spectacular Galley replica, were very nice (with placards in Spanish and English). Although not a bragging point for museums, it was also a lot less crowded than other places. I would highly recommend a visit.

  4. nice museum 2 - Bzmot (15 May 2015 - 11:10)

    A nice museum in a great building including the finest public library in town I dare say

  5. nice museum - mary (20 May 2014 - 08:30)

    if you like sailing ans stories about the history of ocean adventures... great museum in a nice building..

  6. Maritime Museum Barcelona (MMB) - adall (2 Dec 2013 - 09:00)

    Here is the official webpage with updated opening times and prices. Typical price is €5, but free on Sundays after 3p and only €2 if you're local and have your library card (which is free and takes about 10 minutes to get at your local public library).

  7. Maritime museum - Joy K (9 Jun 2013 - 10:00)

    It seemed very promising until we went to the counter and was told the entry was 7 euros per person not the 2.50 mentioned, AND the permanent exhibition, ie the things people come to see, we're closed. What a shame these websites don't provide current info.

  8. Naval museum - what a waste of time, money and space - Niels Søe, Denmark (26 May 2013 - 10:15)

    what a waste of time, money and space

  9. maritime museum barcelona, - Stan (20 Jul 2011 - 09:30)

    We are planning a trip to Barcelona in October and after reading the posts on the Maritme Museum I called to find out if they now had English Guides or audio cassettes (Thank goodness for Skype).

    The person who answered the phone spoke English well enough to explain to me that the museum is undergoing major renovations and at the present time (probably for the next 2 years) there are only a few exhibits, i.e. models and paintings that can be seen. None of the old Spanish Galleons etc. and therefore there are no audio cassettes or English guides available. They reduced the admission to 2,5 Euros.

    We are still going to Barcelona but will not visit the museum--a real disappointment.

  10. Maritime Museum, Barcelona - David Calander (12 Oct 2009 - 17:45)

    Well I'm sorry Alexander Agnew ( March 19th ) had such a bad experience here. We LOVED it. The buildings alone were worth the price of entry. - Very reasonable at about 5 euros - The staff were very courteous and helful and the exhibits were well presented and interesting.

    The Royal Galley was SENSATIONAL !!

    And both our audio systems worked well.

    Go see it, if yo're there !

  11. Museum Maratim - Alexander Agnew (19 Mar 2009 - 09:30)

    For the first time in Barcelona I was made to feel unwelcome. It was my first visit to this beautiful city. I had felt enraptured by every aspect of the city and it's culture. As an ex sailor in the Royal Navy (H.M. Submarines), I was so looking forward to exploring the museum and all it's exhibits. The staff were so unco-operative and rude that they spoiled the whole trip. Being deprived of any audio guide we had to rely on our ability to interpret Spanish as there were so few texts in English. My comment 'Shame on you'.

  12. Museo Marittimo - Marco (6 May 2008 - 20:09)

    A fine mese parto con gli amici a barcelona. di sicuro andremo a visitare il museo marittimo...vi faremo sapere...

    A noter entre-autres merveilles(et a admirer bien entendu) la magnifique barque catalane (sardinal) le Jean et Marie construite dans le chantier naval Bonafos à Banyuls sur mer début 20ième siècle.
