Montjuïc is translated as Hill of the Jews in the medieval Catalan language, a broad shallow hill with a relatively flat top overlooking the harbor.

We started our sight seeing at 9am after breakfast at the market.
It was too early that the museums and cable cars were not operated yet... and we were the only souls in this beautiful spot....
The present Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau is a complex built between 1901 and 1930, designed by the Catalan architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner. Together with Palau de la Música Catalana, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Today it is still a fully functional hospital. There have been discussions to convert this building to a museum sometime in the future. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospital_de_Sant_Pau
