The Fundació Joan Miró was created by Miró himself, at first principally with works from his own private collection, with a desire to set up an internationally recognised centre in Barcelona for Miró scholarship and contemporary art research, and to disseminate the collection. The Fundació opened to the public on 10 June 1975 and has since become a dynamic centre in which Joan Miró's work coexists with cutting-edge contemporary art. The Fundació is located in a building designed by Josep Lluís Sert, making it one of the few museums anywhere in the world in which the complicity between artist and architect underpins the dialogue between the works and the space that houses them. The Fundació offers an overview of the landscapes of Joan Miró's art and life, creating an enriching dialogue with other artists from the 20th and 21st centuries.

The schooner Santa Eulalia is a 100-year-old sailing ship that forms part of the fleet of the Maritim Museum of Barcelona. It was one of the last sailing ships to transport goods throughout the Mediterranean. Today, it is an essential item of heritage for anyone interested in understanding our country’s maritime history. In 2011 the Generalitat de Catalunya declared the vessel an Item of National Cultural Interest (BCIN). It now functions as an ambassador for the museum, the city and the country, participating in seagoing cultural events. The Santa Eulalia is moored at Moll de la Fusta in Barcelona’s Port Vell, very near to the Maritim Museum. The ship can be visited every day, while on Saturday mornings visitors can take a trip out on the schooner and sail along Barcelona’s seafront.
