I think tone night the music opens at 11pm but the other nights They music didn't start till 12pm. The one night the music started at 12pm and we got there at 1130 and really like only 3 people were there by 1210am the place was packed! Great live Spanish guitar music! There aren't many chairs as it really is all about have space to dance. Great live music. Great space, filled with mostly young business professionals (on weeknights at least) and great drinks! I had the most amazing strawberry mojito !

He had to get written approval from her to visit. The home was unique and very Dali but the gardens were my favorite part. Little surprises hidden among the trees and birds! You cannot take photos inside the home but are allowed to photograph the garden. This is chronologically the third stop you should take on the Dali triangle tour but I found time wise that it was best to start here in Pubol, travel to Port Lligat for Dali's home, and finish with the museum in Figueres. All three can be done in one day with careful planning.

Built in his hometown and on the ruins of an old municipal theatre, where his first public exhibition took place as a child. It's now the world's largest collection of his work with over 1500 pieces. Salvador Dalí is a workforce. His brain was magic and I'm so happy he took us to his incredible world of fantasies and surrealism. Getting to see his greatest and last work of all time and being able to sit right on the place where his body rests as you admire the room, ceilings, walls, sounds and work of the greatest surrealist of all time, is something I will never forget. An absolute experience of a lifetime. Heart thumps, goosebumps, knees weak arms are heavy, mom's spaghetti type of experience. He created the world's largest surrealist object and got buried right in the glass dome he designed as his "final surrealistic act". He literally became a part of his greatest work of art. It's an honor to know his work and to be able to get to visit a place like this is a huge privilege I will never forget. It's not just a gallery but a surreal playground.

We stumbled upon this museum after arriving to Figueres for a day trip with the intention of visiting the Dalí museum. Had a couple extra hours before our timed ticket to the Dalí Museum so wandered around town. As we walked past the entrance to this museum, the toys intrigued us so we decided to check it out. It's a simple two story building with rooms laid out by historical period and subdivided into display sections by category of toy. You start from the top and wind your way down back towards the entryway. There must be tens of thousands of different toys, so intricate and detailed. Everything from playing cards, dolls, house-keeping sets, magic, animation, robots, stuffed animals, action figures... It's a joy to take it all in, though I must say probably more enjoyable for adults since there's not many interactive displays considering the aim seems to be mostly preservation and education. Also more enjoyable if you like admiring the details. I cut half a star aren't many display signs in English or other languages, but my friends and I really liked taking our time and simply appreciating the variety and walking down memory lane as these toys stoked our inner-5-year-old's imagination.

This museum experience is decidedly different from what most visitors might expect. The Salvador…read moreDalí House-Museum is not a place for wandering at one's own pace; instead, it unfolds as a timed, guided tour, led from beginning to end through Dalí's former home. What the visit offers is intimacy rather than scale. Guests move through preserved rooms filled with original décor and select works, gaining insight into what inspired Dalí's creative vision and how that vision quite literally reshaped his living space. The gradual expansion of the home over the years, stitched together room by room as his life and success evolved, is itself part of the narrative, and witnessing that progression is quietly compelling. There are, as one might expect, a number of idiosyncratic details--architectural quirks, unexpected layouts, and surreal touches that blur the line between residence and installation. These moments reinforce the sense that this was not merely a place Dalí lived, but a space he actively composed. That said, the museum's appeal is proportional to one's enthusiasm for Dalí himself. It is somewhat remote and intentionally limited in scope. While I enjoyed the experience, it lacks the sheer volume and breadth of artwork found at the Dalí Theatre-Museum. If forced to prioritize one over the other, the choice is clear: the theater museum delivers a far more comprehensive artistic immersion. Ultimately, this visit is about preference. For those drawn to context, biography, and atmosphere, the house museum offers meaningful insight. For those seeking an expansive survey of Dalí's work, the theater museum will be far more rewarding. Either way, you can't truly go wrong, it simply depends on how you prefer to engage with the artist.

It's a one-way road and it's very narrow road going up a hill. I was there 20 minutes before my appointment time and I was declined entrance because I wasn't there 30 minutes before. I bought two tickets just in case I was late after I showed her my other ticket that I was on time and they still didn't let me go inside. The staff was very rude and did not have compassion towards humanity. I am also handicapped and cannot walk fast and they did not care. I am very disappointed with the staff. I tried to buy another ticket for the next day, but the entire month was booked already. Shame on these people. I had other staff saying that they will let me in, but it's not up to them and that they agreed that the people in the front behind the glass were wrong Hijos de puta Los trabajadores de la entrada. No tienes compasión con la gente. I am a you tuber and letting me inn would have helped business instead millions will know my experience!

They have a remarkable collection, well balanced with a rather unbelievable selection of the most famous Dutch Masters and French Impressionists but also abstract, ancient, medieval and Catholic (okay that part isn't as surprising) paintings, sculpture, and sketches. Also, a very good presentation of the history of Montserrat using the very latest in multimedia AV technology. I've been to art museums around the world, all the great ones are in major cities. I've never been to such a wonderful art collection hidden away in a mountain before. Save some time (a couple of hours at least) and energy for this museum.

Words and pictures can't capture the essence of this place--trust me, just book your visit.

The Masía Freixa is one of Terrassa's - and indeed Catalonia's - most impressive Modernist…read morebuildings. Built originally in 1896 as a small factory, it was transformed by the architect Lluís Muncunill in 1907-1910 into a bourgeois residence for the Catalan industrialist Josep Freixa i Artemi. Muncunill was a leading light in Catalan Modernism, which developed the Art Nouveau into the distinctive regional style, of which Gaudi is its most famous exponent. The result is an astonishingly original and beautiful building, all the more impressive for having very restrained detailing (which is where Muncunill differs from Gaudi). The Masia Freixa is essentially an elongated house, with verandas consisting of impressive, naturalistic arcades of parabolic arches. The other main features are its tower, rather resembling a minaret, and the undulating grey roof, broken by a cupola-like second storey. The doors and windows are shuttered and reflect the parabolic shape of the arcade. The lower part of the outside walls are decorated in pale grey tiles with a geometric pattern. When built, the Masía Freixa was on the edge of the town, (Masía normally refers to a landowner's residence or a well-to-do farmhouse) but is now in a small park in the western suburbs of Terrassa. It is most easily reached by taking the FGC train from Barcelona (Plaça de Catalunya) half an hour north to Terrassa Rambla station on line S1, from where it is an easy 5-10 minute walk. The building currently houses the local Music Society, and can be visited on organised walking tours of Modernista architecture - see above for details. That said, it's the exterior which really grabs the attention, and what is worth coming to see.
