Its impossible to miss the entrance of the museum because the door of it is an attraction by itself. Its a modern art work which is made from steal and it fits perfectly to the medieval building. The best time is to visit the museum is after long straw in the Gothic district.

Gaudí's dead

Not much people know how Gaudí died. From what it known he was hit by a tram in front of Sagrada Familia when he crossed the street aiming to go to the construction side of his masterpiece.

He lay in the hospital "Hospital de la Santa Creu", but people didn't recognise the famous artist because of his neglected appereance.

Only three days later, a friend of him found him in this hospital and asked for a private room for him. The same day, 10 July 1926 he died. 

He was buried in the midst of La Sagrada Família.
