Absolutely not worth purchasing tickets, there was nothing to do there, the inside has been gutted and replaced with modern useless info stations, shut doors, and money grab overpriced cafes. No hist…Full review by Cam J

The view up in Montjuic Castle is good. You can see the marina on 1 side & the mountain on the other. You use the same ticket as your metro when taking a tram to Montjuic. We didn’t take the cable…Full review by 8925lenac

We went during winter which is good because there is no crowd. You get a panoramic view of Barcelona. It was just a walk around the castle and some stories of some of the prisoners there. Not much…Full review by elisha a

Q:
Do you have to enter the castle for the views, or are the views okay outside the castle and photo op. Is it worth going inside the castle for pics
A:
You have to enter the fort and pay a fee to get access to the ramparts and walkways that look out over the water and city. I thought it was worth it.

Hi get the funicular train from Paral-lel to Parc de Montjuic and then take the cable car to Castell de Montjuic. The castle is inexpensive to get into (3E) and has a nice cafe & brilliant panoramas. The funicular train is a train that is pulled up a steep hill by cables. Its all part of the Metro network. It only runs between Parc de Mont Juic and Paral-lel.

Hey Franc, to walk back its too far away. First of all, to go and leave from the castle there are two ways, either by bus nor with the teleferic. It depends on how much money you are willing to spend. The bus cost around €8-10 in total. In my opinion you should get the teleferic, two way, which is €13, you go to the castle, which has €5 entrance, and then take the teleferic to go back. At the end you take the bus, which is next to the teleferic station and go to the magic fountain. I hope that I helped you!!!

There are a few small lockers to store items in, but they fit backpacks, not suitcases. I don’t think they’ll let you carry/roll it around with you. Also, to get there you will either take a taxi/bus, walk up a steep hill, or take the sky ride. For the skyride, you’re in it with several people, there’s no room for luggage.
