Ateneu Barcelonès
I've been a member since I was thirty. The library is the best place in the city to read. The garden terrace is where Barcelona's intellectual life actually happens.
Founded 1860. The intellectual clubhouse of Catalan bourgeois culture, where Catalan modernisme was argued into existence and where the censors never quite reached.
