History of the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Parc de Montju\u00efc<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Barcelona attraction known today as the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Parc de Montju\u00efc was once home to an institution known as the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic. That museum was established in 1973; for almost 40 years it occupied a striking building designed by Antoni Lozoya, Joan Puigdengoles, Bonaventura Bassegoda Nonell, and Jes\u00fas L\u00f3pez according to the architectural principles of the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Museu Etnol\u00f2gic closed its doors in 2011, as it underwent an elaborate, four-year renovation under the watch of the architect Toni Giron\u00e8s. When it finally reopened its doors to the public in 2015, it contained a revamped museography courtesy of Jes\u00fas Gald\u00f3n. In 2017, the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic merged with the Museu de Cultures del M\u00f3n; the Museu de Cultures del M\u00f3n became the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Montcada, and the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic became the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Parc de Montju\u00efc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Parc de Montju\u00efc Highlights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The permanent exhibition at the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Parc de Montju\u00efc is entitled Feeling the Heritage<\/em>.

Feeling the Heritage <\/em>is an eclectic exhibition full of diverse objects that are likely to speak quite differently to anyone and everyone who passes through its galleries. That said, a few standout pieces here include an eighteenth-century apothecary cabinet, a Catalan diatonic accordion, a nineteenth-century board game, and a sixteenth-century dower chest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to its permanent installations, the Museu Etnol\u00f2gic i de Cultures del M\u00f3n at Parc de Montju\u00efc regularly stages temporary exhibitions. By their very nature, these installations are subject to change, but for what it\u2019s worth one of the museum\u2019s most recent temporary exhibition was entitled\u00a0Barcelona, \u200b\u200bGiant City: 600 Years of Celebration and Tradition<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
