    The Picasso museum Barcelona is a key reference for understanding the formative years of Pablo Picasso. The genius of the young artist is revealed through the 4,251 works that make up the permanent collection. Furthermore, the Picasso museum, opened in 1963, also reveals his deep relationship with Barcelona: an intimate, solid relationship that was shaped in his adolescence and youth, and continued until his death. We suggest to watch a documentary about Pablo before you go, so that you will understand his art and different periods better. Museu Picasso, c/ Montcada, 15-23, metro L1 Arc de Triomf or L4 Jaume I.
    In November we went to visit the museum as a school activity. Read here how it it was!
