On one Wednesday each month, at 18:30, the Montcada venue of the MuEC will host specialists from various disciplines who will explore travel as a key historical practice in the exchange of knowledge, the construction of worldviews and the configuration of power relations and borders, from sacred itineraries and trade routes to scientific expeditions, cosmological cartographies and academic training journeys.
