Museu de Cera
The city's wax museum is located in a 19th-century landmark palazzo which stands just off the famous Rambla, and brings to life some of the most prominent figures from the history of mankind.
Situated on Barcelona's most iconic street – La Rambla – Barcelona's wax museum, the
Museu de Cera, has undergone a complete refit, with a brand new concept and lots of new waxworks so you can enjoy iconic personalities with state-of-the-art technology and enjoy an unforgettable experience.
You'll find more than 120 figures, in 28 interactive spaces, with new characters including big stars from the worlds of music, sport, cookery, cinema… alongside some of the historic figures that have been on display at the museum since it opened.
And you can't leave the museum without visiting the café, the Bosc de les Fades, a unique, magical place that recreates an enchanted forest with all the details in place: trees, fountains, will o' the wisps and other amazing creatures.

The only tactile exhibit at the museum is a bust made of wax. It is available to visually impaired visitors who have come to the museum individually or as part of a group. The other waxworks contain make-up which can deteriorate if touched so they are not available as tactile exhibits.
The audioguides do not have audiodescriptions for visually impaired visitors.
The museum is fully wheelchair accessible, with the exception of the Chamber of Horrors (Sala del Terror), due to the fact that it is located underground, has narrow corridors and an uneven floor surface.
