Museu de la Xocolata, Chocolate museum in Sant Pere neighborhood, Barcelona, Spain
The museum displays numerous chocolate sculptures, including detailed replicas of Barcelona landmarks such as Sagrada Familia and Casa Batllo in edible form.
The Barcelona Pastry Guild established this educational institution in 2000 within the former Convent de Sant Agusti Vell to showcase chocolate craftsmanship.
The exhibits trace chocolate's transformation from an Aztec ceremonial drink to its introduction in Europe through Spanish conquistadors and modern manufacturing methods.
Visitors receive chocolate bars as entry tickets and can participate in workshops, including fruit dipping for young children and sculpture making for older participants.
The museum features a specialized cafe serving traditional thick Spanish hot chocolate prepared according to centuries-old recipes from local confectioners.
