The Terracotta Ceramics Museum

6 Best Day Trips from Barcelona, and the Itinerary to Know for Each | Condé Nast Traveler

"La Bisbal d'Empordà, a 15-minute drive west of Begur, is one of Catalunya’s most important ceramics producers. So much so, that ‘Ceràmica de la Bisbal’ is a protected designation of origin, like a Champagne of the potter’s world. Given that the first recorded pottery market here was way back in 1511, the Terracotta Ceramics Museum fills in the gaps: what was produced, how, and where we can get our hands on some. The museum building itself isn’t what you’d call a looker—a skinny chimney providing the only thing of interest. But the fun stuff happens inside." - Gemma Askham,Jessica Benavides Canepa
