Catalan Museum of Archaeology

The museum's permanent exhibition spans 4,000 square meters, presenting artifacts from prehistoric times through the medieval period in five chronological sections.

The building was originally constructed as the Graphic Arts Pavilion for the 1929 Barcelona Universal Exposition before architect Josep Gudiol transformed it into a museum in 1932.

The collections include significant pieces such as the Treasure of Torredonjimeno crown and a Neanderthal jaw found in Sitges dating back 53,200 years.

Located at Passeig de Santa Madrona 39-41 in Barcelona, the museum provides online ticket discounts and regular educational workshops for visitors of all ages.

The museum maintains a network of archaeological sites across Catalonia, including the Greek and Roman ruins at Empúries and the Iberian settlement at Ullastret.
