Vil·la Joana, History museum in Vallvidrera, Barcelona, Spain

The Vil·la Joana building features two floors, a watchtower, lateral galleries, and a clock mounted on the main facade within Collserola Natural Park.

Built in the 16th century as a masia, the building became property of the Miralles family in the 19th century and transformed from a farmhouse into a residential villa.

The museum presents exhibits about Barcelona's literary heritage and contains the preserved bedroom where Catalan poet Jacint Verdaguer spent his final days in 1902.

Visitors can reach MUHBA Vil·la Joana by taking the FGC train to Baixador de Vallvidrera station and enter the museum without paying an admission fee.

Between 1920 and 1973, the building operated as Vilajoana School, an educational institution that employed several notable academic professionals of that period.
