Where to park at CaixaForum - Museu

It is one of the most important cultural centers in Barcelona and is located in Montjuïc Park. It is a space dedicated to culture, art, and education. It is also well-known for its architectural beauty.

The CaixaForum Museum is located on Montjuïc, Barcelona. The building was designed by the modernist architect Josep Puig i Cadafalch, a significant figure in early 20th-century Catalan industrial architecture.

The building previously housed the Casaramona textile factory, built in 1912. It was declared a historic monument of national interest in 1976. The industrial appearance, along with decorative elements such as wrought iron, stained glass, and "trencadís" (decorative mosaic made of characteristic tiles of Catalan and Valencian modernism), make it an architectural work of art worth visiting.

CaixaForum hosts exhibitions, immersive experiences, and family activities.
