    Such a cool museum. It takes you through all the sports in the Olympics, from the biggest to the niche ones. Yeah, It's a lot about the 1992 Barcelona Olympic games, but it's also about the Olympic games as a whole. You can see posters, sports equipment (including vintage equipment), pictures and even try some interactive sports simulations. Highly recommend, entry price is also fair.

    Fantastic museum. It takes you from the begining to nowadays. You can see famous moments from the Olympic on various sports. At the entrance you can see some famous athlet's footsteps. In my opinion if you are a sports loving person, you should visit the museum.

    Good but not essential. The sight of somebody's shoes loses its attraction after a while.

    Great museum, very interesting. We learned a lot about sport, from the history of sport in general to more specific details and bios about the big stars. Lots of photos, artefacts, information. Each of the big sports has a little section. You can challenge yourself against Olympic statistics in running, high jump, long jump etc. It's free on the Barcelona City card and near a ho-ho stop. Hard to find though....walk about 100m past the Olympic Stadium and turn right. It has a vending machine with cool drinks.

    The museum is fully set up for Covid-19 visitation with multiple hand sanitizer stations, limited capacity (VERY empty when we were there), one direction walk through, no cafe and no interactive exhibits. It is designed well. We particularly loved the collection of Olympic Torches. We would have loved to see some videos of the Barcelona games and how all the facilities looked at their prime.

    Die Anordnung der Exponate ist nicht stimmig, was die zeitliche Zuordnung betrifft. Auch sind Sportarten vertreten, die nie olympisch waren (z.B. Formel 1). Aber im grossen Ganzen hat es uns trotzdem gefallen.

    This is a great museum for both kids and adults. Cheap entry fee (you get a discount if you have Bus Turustic ticket) and very informative. Takes you back in time when the Olympics first started. Good way to spend 1-2 hours.

    Amazing venue to show the family, an open gate allows you to enter (free of charge) a small area and view the track and stadium with a small shop and cafè situated for convenience before walking through the park and waterfall areas constantly looking back at the stadium. The park area is clean and maintained but unfortunately starting show signs of age. Also close the museum another must before or after seeing the Olympic Stadium.

    Great museum about the Olympics and when Barcelona hoisted it. A lot of good multimedia installations. Interesting and a nice size.

  • 5/5 Duncan C. 1 year ago on Google
    A very comprehensive coverage of practically all sports, not just those in the Olympics. And all aspects of Olympics history, design, media, etc. Plenty to see.

  • 5/5 Marcin W. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best places to visit in Barcelona. If you are a sport fan you must see that!

    Great experience and lots to see, especially if you remember the Games of '92. Free entrance with the Barcelona Card. A stone's throw from the Olympic Stadium and the Joan Miro Foundation.

    A lovely little museum with a lot of cool information that was fun to study. I am especially interested in basketball, and there was a section on that as well ❤️ Its a good place to visit
