MACBA

Why go

The museum gives Barcelona's art after the mid-twentieth century a substantial home, while its white façade makes the building itself part of the experience. Plaça dels Àngels opens around it, creating an unusually broad public space in the dense Raval. The exhibitions change, so the current programme should decide how much time you spend inside.

What to look for

• Richard Meier's white building faces the open Plaça dels Àngels.
• The museum's contemporary art programme extends beyond its core collection.
• Old Raval streets meet the museum's modern geometry at the square.

Useful to know

• Check the current exhibition programme before deciding on an indoor visit.
• Pair MACBA with the nearby CCCB to compare two different approaches to contemporary culture.
