Mont Juic (Hill of the Jews) is a dominant landmark in Barcelona. It rises along the coast just south of the center of town. It was the feature location of the 1992 Summer Olympics as well as at least one major exhibition before that. Now it has a slew of museums, palaces, sports venues and landscaped gardens. This is the Catalonian Art Museum which features huge collections of Romanesque and Gothic art from Catalonia and very little else. It's still definately worth a visit though, especially since most of the surviving artwork from the Romanesque churchs in the Pyrenees has been relocated here, sometimes along with half the building it was originally in.
