Font Màgica, the fountains in front of the National Art Museum of Catalonia, built and restored at the same time as the Palau Nacional. The fountain show, which is synchronized to classical music and lasts for about 15 minutes, runs every half-hour during summer evenings. The National Art Museum of Catalonia (Spanish: Museo Nacional de Arte de Cataluña, Catalan: Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya), abbreviated as MNAC, is a museum of Catalan visual art located in Barcelona, Spain. It is housed in the Palau Nacional, built for the 1929 World's Fair. Situated on the Montjuïc hill at the end of Avinguda de la Reina Maria Cristina, it was rehabilitated by the 1992 Summer Olympics. The museum was created in 1990, when the Catalonian Museum Law reunited the collections of the former Museu d'Art de Catalunya (Catalonian Art Museum) and the Museu d'Art Modern (Modern Art Museum), and declared it the national museum. The new museum thus combined Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque art collections from the Museu d'Art de Catalunya with the 19th and 20th century art collections of the Museu d'Art Modern, and incorporated the Gabinet de Dibuixos i Gravats (Department of Drawings and Prints), the Gabinet Numismàtic de Catalunya (Catalonia Department of Coinage) and the Biblioteca d'Història de l'Art (Art History Library).
