Museum: The idea of creating a Museum to display the history of FC Barcelona goes back to the twenties, when the club founder Joan Gamper put the suggestion to members of the board. For various reasons, the project never got off the ground. It was not until 1984 during the Josep Lluís Núñez presidency that the club was able to inaugurate its Museum. FC Barcelona was once again setting standards for the rest of the football world to follow. A visit to the Museum, which includes a panoramic view of the stadium from the grandstand, can be divided into three main areas of content.
