Pompeii Immersive Exhibition at Barcelona's Montjuïc: 360° Projections, VR & Metaverse
Roman Empire treasures, 360° panoramic projections, virtual reality, and a full metaverse immersion... The Last Days of Pompeii (Els últims dies de Pompeia) is a time-travelling journey back to the ancient Roman city — and it's an experience the whole family can enjoy!
The year is 79 AD. In a peaceful city near Naples, daily life carries on as normal: work, thermal baths, entertainment, taverns... until, in an instant, Mount Vesuvius erupts. What followed was one of antiquity's most famous tragedies — Pompeii was buried beneath a layer of ash for centuries. Today, IDEAL Montjuïc, Barcelona's cutting-edge digital arts centre, presents The Last Days of Pompeii, revealing the secrets of everyday life in the ancient city and the natural disaster that sealed its fate.、

From Strolling the Villa of the Mysteries to Fighting as a Gladiator
Far from a traditional museum experience, The Last Days of Pompeii combines history with cutting-edge technology to transport visitors across time. The exhibition won the 2024 National Geographic +Historia Readers' Award and has already captivated over 50,000 visitors.
Your journey begins with a collection of original archaeological artefacts and exact replicas that set the historical scene. The highlight is the virtual reality room — where, riding a chariot amid roaring crowds, visitors become the protagonists of gladiatorial battles and naval combats in the city's amphitheatre.
Next, 360° projections sweep you from the tranquil cobblestone streets to the very moment Vesuvius's eruption plunges the city into chaos. The immersion goes even further with a metaverse experience — transforming visitors into virtual avatars who can freely explore the famous Villa of the Mysteries.

Pompeii: The Tragedy That Froze Time
This is Pompeii's great paradox: the catastrophe that destroyed it is precisely what allowed it to survive through the ages. The volcanic ash from Vesuvius's eruption shielded the city from looting and decay — which is why Pompeii is preserved in such an extraordinary state. Excavations beginning in the 18th century have revealed a wealth of knowledge about ancient Roman urbanism and daily life. And now, a piece of that history can be experienced right in Barcelona.
An Experience for All Ages
History buffs, curious explorers, adults, and children alike — The Last Days of Pompeii is the perfect blend of entertainment and learning. No prior knowledge is needed: the exhibition itself provides all the historical context. The use of advanced VR technology in metaverse and RV360 formats lets younger visitors discover ancient history in a fun, interactive way, while inviting adults to enjoy a truly different cultural outing.
