Pro tips to help you make a pick

About Cathedral of Barcelona

History buffs will love Barcelona Cathedral. Originally a Roman temple, the site was later transformed into a cathedral in the Gothic style. Construction spanned over 200 years, it began in 1298 in Catalan Gothic style, but the facade wasn't finished until the late 1800s in the Neo-Gothic style. Look for architectural details reflecting Catalan heritage. Climb the bell tower for panoramic city views

Small emerging museum with contemporary works. We really liked the space, in an old building in the gothic center of Barcelona, as the exhibition. The entrance system was perfect and audiguia included in the price. Highly recommended.
