In short, the collection of Barcelona's Military Museum in Montjuïc is no more. And will hardly be again.
Sad news indeed, Marc. Are there any arms and armor related museums in Barcelona that I should visit?
Thank you very much for confirming that the Barcelona Miliatry Museum is closed, so that I can plan my vacation properly.
Best regards,
