Museu de la Xocolata
Aromatic cultural museum tracing the history and art of cocoa in Barcelona
Founded in 2000 by the Barcelona Pastry Guild in the 14th-century Convent de Sant Agustí to commemorate Barcelona's historic role as Europe's primary port for cocoa distribution.
Gothic and baroque cloisters displaying chocolate-making machinery, historical exhibits, and intricate large-scale chocolate sculptures of the Sagrada Família and Gaudí icons.
In the 18th century, the Spanish Bourbon military garrison in Barcelona was officially provisioned with an ounce and a half of chocolate daily with bread for breakfast.
