Museu de Maricel

Sitges


This seafront building entered through the adjacent Museu del Cau Ferrat houses a vast collection of Catalan art spanning the 10th to 20th centuries, including works amassed by the town of Sitges and local collector Jesús Pérez-Rosales. Most spectacular is the downstairs atrium of neoclassical sculptures, framed by arches that overlook the sea.
