Montju\u00efc mountain is a quite historical piece of the Barcelona story: Montju\u00efc Castle is there, which is indelibly linked to the history of Barcelona, for better or worse (more about that in a future post). The National Art Museum (a future post) is situated at the northern end of the mountain. Just north of that is the “Magic Fountain” (also a future post) which is a spell-binding fountain show the likes of which I’ve not seen before in a single large round fountain. Montju\u00efc was also one of the core locations (if not the core location) for the 1992 (I think) Olympics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
