Unconventionals Museums

We are going to propose to you to visit those museums and less conventional and habitual exhibitions. In Barcelona and the Baix Llobregat there are more hidden places that deserve to be known. Pay attention, we explain them to you right away. We remind you that MuchaMasia is the hostel near the Barcelona airport, ten minutes by subway.

Different museums that will leave you amazed

The world of death and the ceremonies around funerals have always generated curiosity. Do you dare to visit a cemetery at night? It has always generated some respect and even some fear. We suggest you visit the most monumental cemeteries in Barcelona with guided tours that can be day or night. The Montjuic Cemetery or the Poble Nou Cemetery are large complexes that house illustrious pantheons and monastic works.

If you dare to visit them, check this link.

And since we are with all this tenebrous area, we have another different proposal. Do you know that in the same cemetery of Montjuic there is a museum of funeral carriages? It is still curious that you can see different carriages that have accompanied the dead over the centuries. If you are interested, read here.

The Museum of Illusions

We also have more cheerful options. The Museum of Illusions in Barcelona offers you the possibility to hallucinate with different settings that will make you participate in the works. Only in Russia is there a similar one. The museum is in Pintor Fortuny Street, very close to Metro Universitat (From MuchaMasia, Line 9 to Torrassa and Torrassa to Universitat).

Water as protagonist

Very close to MuchaMasia we can find the Museu de les Aigües. This space is in Cornellà de Llobregat and explains the different water cycles, the history of drinking water supply and temporary exhibitions related to this precious commodity. The Museu de les Aigües can be reached by public transport from el Prat. You can take the metro Line 9 to Europe / Fira and there change to the FGC until you get off at Cornellà Riera.

Let’s count

We continue in Cornellà and this time it’s time to take the spreadsheet. In this neighboring city of Prat de Llobregat we find another of the curious museums that we encourage you to visit: the Museum of mathematics. Yes, it sounds strange but it does not stop being interesting. Mathematical challenges, understand how some calculation operations work … You can do all this in this museum that also offers another peculiarity: admission is free. The venue considers that you decide the price after enjoying the experience. So, another incentive to visit it.

Hash Marihuana & Hemp Museum

We go to the historic center of Barcelona. On carrer Ample, 35, inside a palace cataloged as a national monument, is the Hash Marihuana and Hemp Museum. Its creators explain to us “The collection of the Hash Marijuana & Hemp Museum consists of more than 12,000 objects related to cannabis, from cultivation to consumption, from ancient rituals to modern medicine, all aspects of cannabis in human culture are represented in one way or another ”

So, you have different proposals to enjoy very close to the Hostel and away from everyday things.
