Melhor época para visitar

Weekday mornings are calmest for the pool and exhibition halls, and the atrium café catches warm golden light in late afternoon. Spring and fall suit the rooftop deck best, since summer humidity and winter drizzle push the social life indoors.

Dicas para economizar

General access to the halls, library, and atrium is free, with paid tickets only for special exhibitions, films, and the pool and gym. Book pool slots online ahead of time and check the site for free film screenings to keep costs low.

Sobre

Fatos rápidos: Forty-three columns hold up the old wine warehouse, and the rooftop pool filters daylight down through a glass floor into the atrium below. The building served as a 1910s wine depot, took heavy damage during the Spanish Civil War, and reopened in 2010 with cinemas, a library, gym, and eateries.

Destaques: Swim laps on the roof and watch sunbathers through the glass floor beneath you, a view that almost no urban pool on the planet can match. Seven of the supporting columns went to guest artists, and the Studio Job piece gleams with thousands of hand-glued gold-leaf squares.
