Brutal experience! Great collection of magical items and 19th-century automatons. It has been an honor for the great Xevi to explain his travels, his history, and everything in the museum. Even at the end, he performs a magic trick. Price more than affordable for everything there is to see. Thank you for the kindness to Xevi and his daughter. We will definitely return.

Amazing, thank you for the effort to restore the building (wonderful), the collection of automata, I was speechless, the kindness of Xevi and his daughter. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Very unusual museum managed by famous Spanish illusionist Xavier Sala i Costa (Xevi). He makes tours with his daughter together. The man has outstanding intelligence, a great sense of humor, and a big love for the place. All his life, profession, and story of illusionism you will find in a lovely building. Entrance has to be booked in advance, but it was easy. I would recommend booking the private tour for a small group of friends. A lovely souvenir in the form of a children's book for painting can also be bought there.
Fantastic experience:
100% recommendable for all ages, a unique museum that transports you to the world of illusion and magic, Mr. Xevi explains it with great wisdom and enthusiasm

Positive experience:
Curious and unique museum about magic (sleight of hand, as we used to call it). Full, packed with pieces, books, photographs, posters, automatons, etc. (most of them working), all explained in an entertaining way by the famous, recognized, and vocational magician Xevi who has had the patience and perseverance to gather so much material and to rebuild the house that hosts it. A lot of merit. The visit feels short. Highly recommended. You need to make an appointment.
Translated from Catalan

A spectacular and highly recommended visit. Xevi and his daughter are great hosts, the guided tour they give you reignites your excitement for magic.

Translated from Catalan
Fantastic experience:
Beautiful museum with a lot of history. Xevi tells his entire story with great affection. It has been a very pleasant and highly recommended visit. There are so many things that you don't know where to look. Just the building alone is worth the visit. We loved everything. For lovers of magic and antiques.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
A very particular and interesting experience, the heritage it houses is worthy of admiration and conservation, a task passionately carried out by Xevi and his family. The visit is not for children; it can be depending on the characteristics of the child but for the sake of the museum, respect for the heritage, and other visitors, it is good to be clear that it is not a light amusement park but a historical journey for contemplation and listening. Thank you.

Large village house [3 floors] converted into a "museum" with a chapel. They have many automata, some of large size, some are set in motion.

A unique place, highly recommended to visit. An old farmhouse with its own chapel converted into a magic museum. With a magnificent garden. It is full of objects related to the world of magic and illusionism. It also has a great collection of automata. And it is Xevi himself who, for almost two hours, takes you through the different rooms of the house to teach and explain all the curiosities you might want to ask. The visit ends with a small magic show that is great.

We started by getting to know the magnificent, funny, and quirky magician-illusionist Xevi, owner of the farmhouse where you experience, for 2 hours, a guided tour by him of all the magic and experiences lived throughout his career. The farmhouse is made up of 3 floors filled with magic materials, passion, and entertainment. Suitable for all ages. Price 10€.

A unique place, not only for the beauty of the treasures it has, but because the main character of the story is there to tell where it all came from, it's like going to the Dali museum and him being there to explain the history of everything.

Excellent. The museum is impressive. No photos are allowed, but they made an exception for our group, and we were also able to share the visit with the magicians Ernesto Planas, Disguido, and of course the magician Xevi (owner of the museum). The tour is guided, and although they don’t pressure you, it’s impossible not to miss some detail, so we will definitely return again. It also has the largest collection of automatons in Spain, even more complete than that of the Tibidabo amusement park. Ideal for families, although children under 6 years old might not enjoy it. The entrance fee is €8, and I think it is very well spent and with a final surprise.

Great, fantastic, very fun to spend an entertaining afternoon or morning, a shame that it is not subsidized, or that it has no assistance to maintain such a beautiful house, what a pity not to appreciate what we have, nor what this town has, a house of magic in Santa Cristina d'Aro, with a bunch of magic objects since 1800. The magic Xevi is an example as a person and very active. Unique museum throughout Europe. Incredible!!

I will return because it is impossible to appreciate everything in just one visit.
Translated from Catalan
Fantastic experience:
An extraordinary corner, full of magic and details that hide a thousand and one stories. A unique museum and a privilege to visit it with a living legend like XEVi.

Like the Dalí Museum in Figueres, but in a magical box, a unique museum to regain 'the illusion'!!!

Peculiar place. The Owner and Wizard is nice although with somewhat archaic humor (for my taste). Interesting the data he provided about the dimensions of the museum, about its peculiarity compared to others in Europe, etc. Data that, however, I still haven't been able to verify. Cool place to take kids, but from a certain age onwards, as otherwise it's impossible to avoid them touching the countless things in the museum.

On Sunday morning we visited the Museum of Magic and the great magician Xevi took us on a tour of the whole farmhouse and the rooms it has, with many magic objects, photographs, awards, and a lot of history in everything that is on display. A good morning with very good explanations and stories narrated by Xavier Sala Costa, the ''Mag Xevi''. Congratulations and keep it up!

Beautiful magic museum. The farmhouse is restored, very well decorated, and looks very well maintained. The guided tour is conducted by the magician Xevi, who shows us the pieces he used to perform magic, along with a bunch of instruments he has collected himself. We were pleasantly surprised by the visit. I recommend it for both adults and children! Magic is for everyone. They have a website and there is no need to book the guided tour.

A highly recommended visit for anyone in the area, both with family and friends. The magician Xevi has a long career and has met illustrious figures like Dalí. The museum features countless objects related to magic, but the collection of automata should be highlighted as it is undoubtedly one of the best.

Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
A museum dedicated to magic, automata, and everything that revolves around illusion. A collection of objects, posters, photos, the largest collection in the world. The Master of the place, Xevi, guides us through this collection with humor, providing anecdotes and details about certain objects. Recommended outing for magic lovers, and for others.

Fantastic experience:
A place to learn about the past of magic in Spain, very educational and fun. Incredible that they have information about Gulmar and Ana Elsa, Cuban telepaths and mentalists. Gulmar set the world record for performing blindfolded (with his eyes covered) 3 times in Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico. The title was taken from him by the Catalan illusionist Xevi, director of this wonderful museum.

Fantastic experience:
A must-visit place, the house is spectacular and Xevi is a charm. If I had to mention one downside, it's that the magic show at the end of the visit is too short; we expected it to be longer.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Fantastic and magical visit to a private exhibition guided by the charming Mago Xevi himself.
We went with our two little ones, and it was a luxurious visit; they were delighted, just like us, so we highly recommend it. In the exhibition, you can see all kinds of gadgets, souvenirs, and curious objects that Xevi himself has been collecting throughout his extensive career across the many countries he has visited and that he and his family keep open to the public out of love for his art and his hometown, Sta. Cristina d'Aro, for only €5. You can even see a wonderful, unique, and extensive exhibition of automatons.
Thank you, Mago Xevi; you have been an excellent host!
