Is MNAC – National Art Museum of Catalonia worth it in a day?

Worth itIn a day

Even on a tight schedule, MNAC – National Art Museum of Catalonia earns the hours.

Allow 2-3 hrs.

Medieval frescoes rehung in reconstructed church apses are genuinely moving, and the building is jaw-dropping. The collection is vast enough to exhaust you, and the Montjuïc hill takes some effort.
