The outstanding part for me of this really well organised and presented small museum is the fascinating section dealing with the life and work of the sculptor Julio Antonio, and the history of the creation and eventual installation of the city's Monument to the Heroes of 1811, which you can visit half way down the Rambla Nova. Free to visit, and in a beautifully restored historic building in the old part of the city.…

ITS FREE !!…

This is a small brilliantly curated museum in a beautifully reclaimed building.Highlights include a large tapestry (similar to the one in Barcelona's Fundacion Joan Miiro) which Joan Miro donated to The Red Cross hospital in Tarragona,to repay them for the care his daughter had received when she was run over by a train, an amazing exhibition about the work of Julio Antonio with some wonderful sculptures, paintings by Josep Icart, Josep Sala Lorens and installations, the most heart wrenching being Homage to Sarajevo by Jaume Sole. There are explanation sheets in Spanish, Catalan and English and some videos so you get a sense of how some of the works were created, the staff are friendly and this is one of the few sights here that is actually FREE!!…

What made the difference for me was the laminated sheets of info in most rooms, available in several languages, including English. Made me look with real interest at many of the paintings. Spent most time finding out about the Miro tapestry, and the moving exhibit of about 20 paintings based on Sarajevo, with an interactive explanatory screen, which was excellent. If you visit as a family there are really good kids activities and sheets, plus a kids room for coloring etc. Full marks to this place,…
