<p>Cerdanyola Art Museum</p>

World Book Day or Sant Jordi on 23 April is the perfect time to explore the amazing Art Nouveau heritage of the regions around Barcelona. Using roses as our inspiration, we suggest a tour of five places that are a must-see if you love Catalan Modernisme, floral motifs and legends. 

<p>Catalonian Museum of Wine Culture</p>

The Catalan Wine Cultures Museum is housed in the former Royal Palace of Vilafranca del Penedès, on the Costa Barcelona. Better known as the VINSEUM, its fascinating collection appeals to the senses, vividly evoking memories and experiences. Come on in and prepare to be amazed!

<p>Castell de Santa Florentina</p>

Casa Batlló, the Sagrada Família, the Pedrera and, beyond Gaudí, the Catalan modernist site of the old Hospital of La Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Casa Amatller and the Palau de la Música Catalana... Catalan modernism will be your faithful companion throughout your trip to Barcelona. But you should bear in mind that it this movement is not confined to the capital city. Do you need proof? Here are three little-known buildings in the province of Barcelona where you can discover other variants of Catalan modernism: a refurbished mediaeval castle, the house of an upper-class family and even an industrial building. As an extra, enjoy a garden designed by Gaudí himself that predates his world-famous Park Güell.
