...in the Palau Nacional, a wonderful building that dominates the skyline for miles around. The old building has been sensitively and creatively modernised internally providing a huge, airy space and a very relaxing environment. Much of the art on display is religious and taken from numerous old churches in the region but there are also several rooms displaying work from the 19th and 20th centuries including some early Picasso.
