About

The Museum of the History of Barcelona (Museu d'Història de Barcelona, MUHBA) is dedicated to preserving and showcasing the rich historical heritage of the city of Barcelona. Located in the Gothic Quarter, the museum's central site is in the Casa Padellàs, a Gothic palace that was moved stone by stone to its current location in the Plaça del Rei. MUHBA offers visitors a fascinating journey through Barcelona's history, from its origins as the Roman settlement of Barcino to its development into a major medieval and modern metropolis. The museum's extensive archaeological remains, including Roman ruins, medieval structures, and Renaissance artifacts, provide a comprehensive look at the city's evolution over more than 2,000 years.
