Girona Museum of Art, Art museum in Palau Episcopal, Girona, Spain.

The Girona Museum of Art presents a chronological collection of paintings and sculptures from Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods across multiple exhibition halls.

Established in 1976, the museum occupies the former Episcopal Palace, which dates back to the tenth century and retains several original architectural elements.

The museum features important religious artworks, including the ninth-century liturgical ensemble from Sant Pere de Rodes and the fifteenth-century Martyrology of Usuard manuscript.

Located at Pujada de la Catedral 12, the museum operates from 10:00 to 19:00 during summer months and 10:00 to 18:00 in winter, with reduced hours on Sundays.

Things to do on the Costa Brava: attractions, activities, heritage

The Costa Brava stretches along the Catalan Mediterranean coast, combining historical monuments with natural landscapes. Girona Cathedral features the widest Gothic nave in the world, while the Salvador Dalí Museum in Figueres houses the largest collection of the surrealist artist's works. The 10th-century monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes sits above the coast overlooking the sea. The Greek and Roman ruins of Empúries document over a thousand years of Mediterranean settlement. Medieval villages such as Pals and Peratallada have preserved their fortified structures and cobbled streets. The Marimurtra Botanical Garden in Blanes displays Mediterranean and exotic plant species along the cliffs. The coastline offers beaches of various sizes, from the wide sandy stretches at Platja d'Aro to small coves tucked between rocks. The Medes Islands form a marine reserve for divers and snorkelers. The coastal path Camí de Ronda connects many towns, passing through pine forests and along clifftops.
