\"Museum<\/a><\/p>\n

Five museums in Barcelona have once again joined forces this summer to propose an enjoyable joint activity: the Museum Quiz Summer Tour. Do you want to play?<\/a><\/strong>, a trivial pursuit for teams<\/strong> that has been held every Wednesday evening in July in each of the five museums.<\/p>\n

\"Moment<\/a>

A moment during the quiz at the Museu Nacional<\/p><\/div>\n

The\u00a0Museum Quiz Summer Tour\u00a0is based on the pub quiz<\/a>, a questions and answers quiz for teams that is typically held in pubs in Great Britain, so successfully that it has spread all over the world. The five museums, the Museu de Ci\u00e8ncies Naturals de Barcelona<\/a>, the Museu d\u2019Arqueologia de Catalunya<\/a>, the Museu Mar\u00edtim de Barcelona<\/a>, the Centre de Cultura Contempor\u00e0nia de Barcelona<\/a> and the Museu Nacional d\u2019Art de Catalunya<\/a>, have adapted this game, which consists of three rounds of different questions and answers at a level similar to Trivial Pursuit.<\/p>\n

The questions are on aspects often related to the theme of each museum, in a relaxed atmosphere, drinking beer. The Quizmaster, in charge of presenting and enlivening the contest, was the actor and comedian Albert Montes.<\/p>\n

Here are 20 questions from the quiz that was held in the museum. Do you fancy playing? The answers to the questions are given at the end.<\/p>\n
