Bookshops
and Museum’s shops

If you’re a book lover, Barcelona is your destination. The city is home to an impressive array of bookshops. There are specialist ones, new ones, bookshops founded over 100 years ago, bookshops where you’ll find books for children and young adults, second-hand books and world literature, as well as bookshops that have cafés and host talks and activities. In short, there are bookshops for all tastes. Bookselling is one of the city’s oldest trades, and a true art. And speaking of art, if you’re interested in art books, the city’s museum shops stock a great choice of books about artists and exhibitions as well as design objects, stationery, jewellery and all kinds of mementoes so you can take a small sample of Barcelona art home with you.
