Audio tour · Poble Espanyol de Barcelona

2:40

You're standing at the Poble Espanyol, the Spanish Village, on Montjuïc in Barcelona. It sounds like an ordinary little village, but it's actually an open-air museum. Behind these walls stand 117 full-scale buildings, each copied from a real place somewhere in Spain. Together they form a small town, with streets, squares, houses, a school and a theatre.
