Museu Frederic Marès

Frederic Mares Museum
Museums / Galleries, Barri Gòtic


Fodor's Review:

Here, in a building off the left (north) side of the cathedral, you can browse for hours among the miscellany assembled by the early-20th-century sculptor-collector Frederic Marès. Everything from paintings and polychrome wood carvings -- such as Juan de Juní's 1537 masterpiece Pietà and the Master of Cabestany's late-12th-century Apparition of Christ to His Disciples at Sea -- to Marès's personal collection of pipes and walking sticks is stuffed into this surprisingly rich potpourri.
