Wax Museum Barcelona Tickets

The Barcelona Wax Museum (or Museo de Cera de Barcelona as its known locally) is located just off the famous 'Las Ramblas' in the heart of the city in a former bank building.

The museum offers an immersive experience for visitors to enjoy, bringing to life some of the most iconic figures from history, art, popular culture, sports stars and of course the movies.

The museum dates back to 1973, having been established by the Catalan sculptor Cristina Lucas and the museum has since become a cultural landmark in the city.

Lucas, who was renowned for her exceptional craftsmanship, envisioned a space where visitors could interact with lifelike representations of historical and contemporary figures.

The museum has undergone expansions and renovations to ensure that it stays relevant and captivates for visitors of all ages and is now home to over 350 wax figures and scenes set out over 28 halls.

When visitors enter they are greeted by an fun selection of wax figures that span various cultures including legendary historical figures like Leonardo da Vinci and Queen Elizabeth I to modern-day icons such as Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dalí, the museum offers a diverse selection that appeals to a broad audience.

Other figures on display include:

Barak Obama
Lionel Messi
Albert Einstein
Brad Pitt
Greta Thunberg
Jack Nicholson
Stephen Hawking
Captain Jack Sparrow

Some of the sections include:

"The Depth of the Sea" - represents the world and how we can help protect it.
The "Climate Crisis" room represents the issues we face with climate change and is home to the Greta Thunberg waxwork.
"Homage to Catalonia" where you will find the fun Castellers towers (the annual event where the people form the human towers)!

Interactive Exhibits

One of the unique aspects of the Wax Museum in Barcelona is its interactive exhibits. Unlike traditional museums where visitors are often restricted from touching the exhibits, Barcelona encourages interaction! Guests can pose for photos with their favourite celebrities, historical figures, and even fictional characters, creating memorable moments that go beyond the typical museum experience.

Themed Sections

The museum is organized into themed sections with each dedicated to a specific era, genre, or cultural phenomenon. Whether you're interested in the Renaissance period, Hollywood stars, or sports legends, there's a section for you!
