Creator's Key Takeaways

It's more of a glorified fort, but it offers some of the best panoramic views of the city and the sea.

Visiting today isn't just about the views. It's about connecting with the site that has shaped Barcelona's story.

Some things that maybe you don't talk about as much when you're getting through that Gothic quarter or in those modernist periods, but it is something that's really interesting and something that's definitely worth checking out while you're here.

Even if the museum isn't worth it to you, these do offer some of the best views in the city.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a hat and glasses if visiting in summer due to lack of shade.
