Poble Espanyol

Poble Espanyol is a unique open-air architectural museum located on Montjuïc Hill, showcasing Spain’s cultural diversity in one immersive setting. The venue features full-scale replicas of buildings from across the country, allowing visitors to walk through streets inspired by Andalusia, Castile, Galicia, and Catalonia. Alongside architecture, Poble Espanyol offers artisan workshops, galleries, and cultural spaces.
This venue is also included in select MegaPass options, making it easy to combine with other top attractions in Barcelona.

Poble Espanyol was created for the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition as a celebration of Spain’s architectural heritage. Designed as a permanent cultural space, it has since evolved into a living museum that blends history, craftsmanship, and contemporary culture.

Opening hours vary by day and season. The venue is generally open daily, with extended evening hours during summer months or special cultural events.
