The Arab Baths are a striking example of 12th-century Romanesque architecture, inspired by Roman and Islamic bathhouse traditions rather than built by them. Designed during a period of Christian rule, they served as public baths for Girona’s diverse medieval community, blending functional elements from Roman thermae, Muslim hammams, and Jewish purification rituals. The centrepiece is the apodyterium (changing room), a sublime octagonal space crowned by a dome and supported by slender columns, where a central pool reflects light from above. Other rooms — the frigidarium (cold bath), tepidarium (warm room) and furnace-heated caldarium (sauna) — showcase sophisticated hydraulic engineering. Despite damage during sieges and later use by Capuchin nuns, the baths were meticulously restored in the 20th century. Today, they offer a quiet glimpse into medieval daily life and the cross-cultural exchanges that defined the era.

The Salvador Dalí House Museum in Portlligat offers an intimate glimpse into the daily life and creative world of the surrealist master. What began as a simple fisherman's hut in 1930 evolved over four decades into a labyrinthine complex of interconnected rooms, each personally designed by Dalí and his wife Gala. The house is a surreal work of art in itself, with winding corridors, unexpected level changes, and windows meticulously framed to capture views of the serene Portlligat bay. Visitors can explore the artist's studio, private quarters, and the famous "Bear Hall", surrounded by the eclectic objects and taxidermy that fueled his imagination. The preserved interiors feel frozen in time, maintaining the atmosphere of creative isolation Dalí cherished.
