The Museum of the History of Catalonia (Catalan: Museu d'Història de Catalunya, MHC) is a history museum in Barcelona that promotes the awareness and knowledge of the history of Catalonia and its culture. The museum is located in Barcelona's Palau de Mar, the former General Stores (Magatzems Generals de Comerç), the sole building of Barcelona's old industrial port still standing. The permanent exhibition "The memory of a country" consists of a journey through the history of Catalonia from prehistoric to contemporary times, documenting the main events, cultures and historic personalities that made up the history of Catalonia. It is divided on 8 historical periods and it develops on the second and third floor of the museum building. At the first floor, instead, temporary exhibitions are showcased, for example: "Fashion and fashion designers" (2019), "Beyond the trenches (1936-1939): Photographies by Alec Wainman" (2019) and "Viladecans Cartells" (2024).
