# Museum of Illusions Barcelona — Where Barcelona becomes a painting

> Official website: https://illusions-museum.com/ · HTML version of this page: https://illusions-museum.com/

Barcelona's most photographed 3D illusion museum. 30+ painted illusions you can step into. Take photos no other museum lets you take. 5 minutes from Plaça Catalunya.

**Open today · 11–21h**

## What's inside

Every mural here is hand-painted by talented artists: more than 30 walls painted by hand, not printed.

**Streets that bend. Reality, rewritten.** Paintings that pull you in. Every step changes what you see. Bring your camera — physics doesn't apply here.

**From Shrek to Hulk. Meet your heroes.** Pop culture, painted bigger than life. Strike a pose with Shrek, Hulk, Minions, Messi and the Ninja Turtles — they're all waiting inside. Kids under 5 free · family-friendly.

**Step into Casa Milà. Take the photo nobody else has.** Gaudí, Sagrada Familia and the Gothic Quarter — reimagined as walk-in murals. The most Instagrammable take on Barcelona's icons.

**Eight more museums. One more ticket.** Down the rabbit hole with Alice, a room of mirrors and light, a sweet museum with a wedge of cheese bigger than a sofa, a house that stands upside down, a museum of madness built to spook you, and a room where you are the giant. Eight themed museums at La Rambla de Sant Josep 88-94, five minutes on foot from ours: Alice in Wonderland, Magic Room, Sweet Museum, Upside Down House, Museum of Madness, Giant's House, Food Art Museum and more. The Duo Fun ticket covers all nine museums for €29,00 instead of €40,00.
