Created by Joan Miró as an institute for the study of contemporary art, it was built by his close friend and architect Josep Lluís Sert. Its outstanding octagonal tower houses a concert hall that's used as an auditorium for classical music performances. The permanent collection includes Miró's art in all formats: large canvases, tapestries, everyday objects, engravings, photographs and more. The Fundació also organizes temporary exhibitions and has a café-restaurant and souvenir shop. The hours of operations may vary according to the months, kindly visit the website for further details of the same.
