Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya , abbreviated as MNAC,
it  is a  museum of Catalan Visual art located in Barcelona, Spain. Built
for 1929 World's fair, situated on the Montjuic hill and rehabilitated by the
1992 Summer Olympic.



The museum was created in 1990, when the Catalonian Museum
Law reunited the collections of the former Catalunian Art Museum and the Modern
Art Museum and declared it as National Museum. The architectural design of the
museum is a combination of classical and Modern Spanish Art.  It was opened in 1995, with the Romasque Art
section. The Gothic Art section was opened on 199, while the Renaissance,
Barocque, 19th and 20th century collections was opened on
2000. The official opening with the building completely rehabilitated and all
the collection in place was on 2004.



The original Museu d'Art de Catalunya was opened on 1934 on
the same place as today, but was closed during the Spanish Civil War.



Since 2004, the museum accommodates lots of Spanish Arts to
display. It is the sign that Spanish arts still continue and always following
the Spanish traditions,



This Museum is one of the most tourist favourite of
Barcelona. It is indeed a beautiful work of art building, very impressive
piece. Millions of tourist very year loves to witness the beautiful display of
Spanish art.
