Museu Diocesà

Tucked right by the stunning Barcelona Cathedral, Museu Diocesà is a hidden gem that surprised me! The Gaudi exhibit was the star—its audio tour and VR experience brought his genius to life, keeping my friend and me hooked. The staff was super friendly, especially with kids, making it a great stop for families (free entry for little ones!). The collection of sacred art and relics is compact but beautifully presented in a historic setting. At 8€, it’s a bit pricey for the size, and some exhibits could use clearer explanations, but the location and unique Gaudi focus make it worth a visit. Perfect for a quick 1-hour stop while exploring the Gothic Quarter. Pro tip: grab the audio guide for extra insights!

After the cathedral tour ? Don't miss the Museum of Sacred Arts! The exhibits tell the story of Christianity in a beautifully organised way. The informative displays and clear explanations taught me new things even after 30 years as a Catholic - like learning that Mary's parents name were Joachim and Ann. The museum covers fascinating aspects of Catholic faith, from the Eucharist to the Assumption of Mary (celebrated August 15th). The religious artwork is stunning, with detailed medieval paintings and golden relics. Everything is presented with well-written trilingual explanations that make the history and traditions easy to understand.

It is a place that preserves and exhibits many artworks and artifacts related to the Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca. The collection is larger than the Museu de La Seu de Mallorca located within the cathedral. Traces of the early 20th-century renovation project led by Antoni Gaudí can also be seen. Admission to the museum is included with the cathedral entrance ticket.

Very interesting, lovely view from top to the Harbour

It is a small nice museum. We went to see the baby crocodile from the city legend. This museum can be visited with the tickets for the cathedral for free. We visted the cathedral on Friday and the museum the nexy day.

Fascinating history about the various saints, nuns, and religious leaders of the time. Well laid out with more modern pieces from Gaudí.

Find a spiritual connection to God and connect to Him with this baroque inspired collection. Don’t skip it, really economical and very tourist friendly. Easy to find, back of the cathedral.
