An interactive museum about the history of Catalonia, which takes you from prehistoric times through to today. It is located in a 19th-century building belonging to the installations of the old port of Barcelona.

Access to the building is on level ground and the different floors are connected by ramps with a steep slope (12-14%), escalators and two lifts, one of them for 13 people. There are two adapted toilets. On the ground floor is a booth adapted for each sex, and on the cafeteria and restaurant floor, a booth adapted for mixed use.
The models can be touched if advance notice is given.
The restaurant, free to enter, serves Catalan cuisine. There is a small projection to go out onto the terrace.
