    A small museum with a few artifacts from different time periods. There's not much else to do in Girona. I honestly enjoyed sitting in the courtyard and admiring the different columns. Some of the capital types bewildered me, but that is just Girona for you. A cool breeze can be depended upon.

    It was mostly empty inside but there were some old tombs and ancient Latin writings. There is big garden at the back of it, it very peaceful. Also if you go upstairs there is an exhibition of history from the oldest to till now. It was very pleasing however I wish they had enough English explanations. Mostly explanations are in Catalan.

    Really beautiful and serene setting. Be sure to dress in layers cause you're gonna work up a sweat ascending to the top. Wear well cushioned shoes and take lots of breaks. Breathtaking views of the town. Still feels very sacred and historical despite the tourism.

    Museum is boring. Cloister is nice but the Cathedral has a better cloister. No reason to go in here. Outside looks nice

    Didn't go into the monastery for a visit but saw it from the hill where the city wall is. It stands out against the city as the backdrop.

    Make sure you buy the multi-ticket and get discount on 5 more sites. Museum is super interesting, with artifacts from the Paleolithic era to the end of Antiquity. GOT fans will recognise the Citadel reception area. Oh and remember to ask about the Mermaid!

    If you are a Game of Thrones fan, visiting the city of Bravos (Girona) is an absolute must... It could be some of the top things you do in Spain/Barcelona if you plan correctly... something to stress is choosing the correct guide to take you, paying a little more, and getting a less rushed and knowledgable guide is worth more than going cheap and spoiling the experience...

    A beautiful monastery near to old town. There is also a small museum inside there that I could not visit.

    Located inside the monastery is a relatively small museum that consists of two floors, both of which have a great amount of historical items and artefacts available for viewing. Entrance fee per person is 4.50, this will allow you to visit multiple museums in the region and city of Girona for free or at a discount. For any history lovers I do recommend a quick visit if your schedule allows it.

    A nice old church. Be sure to visit it when you're in Girona.

    Empty when we arrived there at 1pm on a Wednesday. Lovely and cool in the cloisters. Well presented exhibits with some English translations (but not for all exhibits). There's a small kids activity area. Beautiful example of Romanesque architecture.
