I went in Feb 2026 during the exhibition “Rodoreda, une forêt” - having known nothing about her work or writing I still found it really interesting and a great mix of current and older art works to draw out different themes. I really enjoyed the interactive element at the end where people are invited to create their own contribution to an art work using collage.
The only exhibition open when we were there (on a Sunday evening) was the comics collections by Chris Ware, and wonderfully the ticket is for free. It turned out to be a truly rewarding experience. Come to think of it, who could say that works in this form should not be regarded as masterpieces, every bit as exquisite as classical fine arts?
A very varied and well curated cultural space. With a range of spaces and elements that leaves you energised and full. From sculpture to paint to moving image to AR. Not only the installations but also the fact that there's an archive where you can work or study or reflect on your visit. There's also a cafe, which was my only slight negative as the service wasn't the quickest or friendliest, but the quality of food was very good. Overall a really uplifting experience, in an interesting neighbourhood of the city.
We came across with Chris wore exhibition Sunday after 3pm , it’s for free. So you can book your tickets via website Cool place to be in Thanks
Unlike traditional museums focused on permanent collections, the CCCB constantly reinvents itself through temporary exhibitions, multimedia installations, debates, concerts, film cycles, and cultural events. The museum for tackling modern topics such as technology, urban life, climate change, photography, and social transformation in creative and immersive ways. The building itself is worth the visit alone. The restored Casa de la Caritat combines centuries-old stone walls with dramatic contemporary architecture, including large reflective glass facades and open courtyards that give the center a unique atmosphere. The rooftop viewpoints and open public spaces add even more character to the experience. What makes the CCCB especially memorable is its energy and originality. This is not a quiet “walk past paintings” museum — it is a living cultural hub where art, society, technology, and ideas constantly intersect. Some exhibitions can feel experimental or conceptual, but that is also part of its charm. For travelers seeking a deeper and more contemporary side of Barcelona beyond Gaudí and historic landmarks, the CCCB is an excellent stop.
