Can Llopis Romanticism Museum

It was the home of several generations of the Llopis family, local people of seafaring origin who had climbed the social ladder thanks to the accumulation of land and the trade in wines and liquors.

At that time, the local post office was located on the ground floor of the mansion, as we can see from the letter box in the form of a lion with its mouth open next to the front door.

The sobriety of the decoration on the outside of the building contrasts with its colourful interior, which takes the visitors back in time to plunge into the everyday atmosphere of a well-to-do nineteenth-century family.

Today the Hospital de Sant Joan Baptista [ca] is the owner of the brand, and the vineyards bequeathed by the last heir of Casa Llopis, on condition that the institution should preserve the cultivation and the quality of Sitges Malvasia.

Lola Anglada's collection isn't a result of the wish to find unique specimens, but of a sentimental urge to recover in the poses and clothes of these dolls the lost ways of life of nineteenth-century society.
