Museu Picasso
By far one of the most visited museums in Barcelona, the Museu Picasso is housed in five of the many fine medieval stone mansions on Carrer de Montcada.
The Palau Aguilar, Palau del Baró de Castellet, and the Paleu Meca, all dating back to the 14th century, house the museum’s permanent collection.
Temporary exhibits are found in the 18th century Casa Mauri, built atop medieval remains, in addition to the neighboring 14th century Palau Finestres.
The following url is a link to the museum’s website, where they offer a virtual introduction to some of the highlights of their collection.
