Museu Frederic Marès
-
A fascinating shrine to objects large and small, this museum houses the life collection of wealthy Catalan sculptor Frederic Marès. And what a trove. No mere hobby collector, the astute (and obsessive) Marès amassed holdings that a modern museum curator would die for. Among them, an impressive array of religious icons and statues – dating from Roman times to the present – and the spectacular “Museu Sentimental”, which displays anything from ancient watches to fans and dolls. Also worth a visit is the inviting Cafè d’Estiu (Cafés & Light Eats) on the museum’s sun-dappled patio.
