The Museu d'Art de Girona examines how material objects acted as vessels for transcendence during the Middle Ages. This exhibition shifts the focus from the aesthetic value of the pieces to their symbolic and spiritual function, drawing on a collaboration between several Catalan museums curated by Marc Sureda and Alberto Velasco.

The Planns tip

The exhibition is located on the Pujada de la Catedral: take the walk up through the old town before you head inside.

In the heart of the Barri Gòtic, the Casa de la Pia Almoina houses the artistic collection of the Museu Diocesà de Barcelona. Three thousand pieces, from Romanesque to Modernisme, trace the evolution of faith and creation through altarpieces, sculptures, and goldsmithing.
