You can enter freely during these hours, with no prior booking required. More details on the municipal website.

Admission is completely free. No ticket purchase or advance booking is required, except for large groups (more than 15 people). Check special conditions by calling 936 759 876.

The full visit takes between 45 and 60 minutes. It is a compact space but full of architectural details. We recommend watching the introductory audiovisual presentation (15 min) to put the site's history into context.

It is a jewel of Catalan Modernism from 1902 designed by Gaietà Buïgas, architect of the Columbus Monument in Barcelona. It served as a cooperative wine cellar until 1920. Its central nave with parabolic arches and skylights is unique in Europe. Discover its history in this dossier.

We recommend weekdays in the morning (10:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m.) to avoid groups. In summer, the afternoons are cool thanks to its underground construction. Avoid local holidays such as Saint Medir (third Sunday of August) because of the high number of visitors.

It has partially adapted access: the ground floor is accessible, but there are stairs to the upper areas. They have a stairlift chair available on request (contact +34 936 75 98 76). Adapted restrooms are available.

A 5-minute walk away: the Monastery of Sant Cugat (a Romanesque jewel) and Pollancreda Park. At 10 minutes: the Municipal Market (Rationalist architecture). More suggestions at Sant Cugat Tourism.

1) Wear comfortable shoes (the old floor is uneven) 2) In summer, bring water (although the interior is cool) 3) Use the free audio guide (available in 4 languages) 4) Do not miss the stained glass at sunset, when the light comes in through the skylights.
