On the program: a tour of selected plot points of the series, from the Wall, where the Black Castle is located, to King's Landing, passing through Winterfell. The costumes, jewelry, and other accessories worn by the actors throughout the series.

If you come to Barcelona, ​​we offer you. We offer renovated and equipped apartments in any part of the city.

A real dive behind the scenes of one of this year's most popular series. team Ok Apartment we went to the exhibition, and we will give you a brief description of what you will be able to see:

Time to visit the exhibition

Although the organizers say you should allow an hour and a half to see the entire exhibition, it only took us 30 minutes. Of course, you will need more time if you want to take photos in each location.

How to get there

The exhibition "Game of Thrones" takes place in the Maritime Museum of Barcelona, ​​​​located in Avinguda de les Drassanes, near the port. You can easily get on the metro L3 and get off at the stop Drassanes or take bus 14, 18, 36, 57, 59, 64, 91.

The Game of Thrones Crypt operates in the Big Wine Storage of the Winery - a real "portal" to the world of Westeros for all fans of the fantasy saga, which was built by the Amediateka online service. Visitors to the unique space can see the tomb where 60 Game of Thrones characters "rest", the famous Hall of Faces, where you can see the faces of each of them, as well as remember and relive their story in the series. To do this, you need to read the QR code on any exhibit and a special web application will show the death scene of this hero.

The sculptor-actionist Oleg Kulik took part in the unique project and made a special installation called the Kunstkamera.

According to Oleg Kulik, “The project “Crypta…” looks like the end of the story. Art is eternal, but the artists are dead, and the history of art is possible only as the last series about strange "characters" under a luminous dome with a blue dream of Man. In modern art, as in the Game of Thrones, no one survived, but fascinating stories remained. Faith has passed and the offensive of the army of the Looking-Glass happened with the bodies of the heroes of our time and the loops of time that have not yet cooled down. The war for the chair as a “war” for a place in history and the war for the throne merge into an indistinguishable spectacular identity on the plasma of a digital image, and consumer empathy is dissipated between all participants in the fading battle..

The artist in wood, clay and copper depicts himself and the cultural heroes of the past and the future. Diogenes or Kulik-dog, Satyr with a small Dionysus on his shoulder or grown-up Osmolovsky on the “rejuvenated” Mayakovsky-David, Demeter or Lady Godiva, Minotaur or Picasso - a ritual, the first civilizations, cinema and contemporary art are equalized in a posthumous battle in a purgatory: here they materialize inhuman ambitions and superpowers, too human weaknesses and complexes.

On the arched ceiling, the Vitruvian man Leonardo "stands" on all fours; man-dog with superhuman efforts returns either to an anthropomorphic appearance, or says goodbye to the "human" forever; A minotaur without a skin suddenly resurrected and “naked” barely hangs on one finger and stretches out his hand, as if in the hope of a reviving touch; swollen dwarf descendant, climbs onto the shoulder of the copper giant ancestor.
A woman of hybrid nature with a body made of synthetic ceramoplastics and iron hair-rods, like a self-generating mother, growing out of the ashes, from under the damp earth.

The wars that are being waged today for the most part secretly and virtually, seat the viewer behind the screen of a fantasy film with medieval battles and skirmishes, allowing them to experience catharsis and ecstasy, albeit cinematic and sporty.

During the week that the exhibition was open, it was visited by approximately 2,500 people daily and 5,000 people on the opening day. Even at half past nine in the morning, a queue gathers in front of the entrance.

For the first time, HBO exhibits props in a format that makes the visitor feel like they are in a museum.

Visitors are greeted by a map of Westeros on a huge parchment, the work of Game of Thrones lead artist Jim Staines.

There are many talented artists among Game of Thrones fans. The exhibition features fan art selected through the show's tumblr blog.

The weapons for the series are designed and forged in a forge in Belfast (Northern Ireland).

The details are breathtaking. Joffrey's crossbow.

House Stark's two-handed sword, Ice, was forged for three weeks by hand using contour welding. Details on the blade through the glass are not very visible.

The blacksmiths make two copies of the armor for each main character: one for the actor and one for the stunt double. The helmets are made of light steel so that the actor can wear them for the entire 8-12 hours of filming.

The needle sword was custom-made for Maisie Williams. Maisie, who is right-handed, learned swordsmanship with her left hand because Arya is left-handed.

For the Starks, Michelle Clapton opted for muted shades of blue-gray and brown.

To show the down-to-earth lifestyle of northerners, Michelle Clapton deliberately refrained from using jewelry. The only exception is Catelyn's trout brooch of the house of Tully, from which she comes.

To make the clothes look natural even in HD, they are subjected to an aging procedure for two weeks.

The hexagon at the base of Quaita's mask and Melisandre's necklace is not a coincidence, which, according to Michelle Clapton, refers to the Ashshai origin of both heroines.

It's a pity that the photo does not convey this, but the amazing lighting design creates a very suitable gloomy atmosphere. But the looped main musical theme of the series fills the teeth. “The music will finish me off,” said one employee on the last day of the show. “She sounds in my head even when I sleep,” agreed another.

Throughout the exhibition are screens from which George Martin talks about the series.

A stunning detailed life-size model of the dragon was created based on Martin's description; it was then scanned and used to create a computer model for the series.

Computer visual effects studio Pixomondo brings dragons and White Walkers to life. The photo shows a dragon in the third season version.

Emilia Clarke is incredibly small.

The producers of Game of Thrones gave one of the three eggs to George Martin when he married Parris McBridge in February 2011.

All "exhibits" are genuine - these are the items that were used on the set. Left to right: Maester Luwin's chain; figurines with symbols of great houses from Robb's camp; Jaqen Khgar's dart, which was used to kill Amory Lorch; Jaqen H'ghar's coin given to Arya; a doll that Ned gives to Sansa.

Left to right: Lannister lion medallion given to Sansa; sign of the Hand of the King; Catelyn Stark brooch with Tully trout.

Game of Thrones fans are a diverse and numerous crowd. It is not easy to move around the exhibition.

The Robert Baratheon Goblet made of horn looks not as worn as it might seem. In the center is Robert's will and on the right is Renly Baratheon's armor.

The severed fingers of Davos Seaworth look very natural, even with dirt under the nails.

The crown of both Robert (left) and Renly (right) use the antlers of the Baratheon family crest.

The severed head of Ned Stark looks as disgusting as it is in the frame.

Left to right: Cersei Lannister pendant; a vial of poison taken by Cersei; the hand of the High Septon; a pot of wild fire; King Joffrey's crown; tableware; Tyrion Lannister's purse; fake fish; bag with diamonds; one of Tyrion's books.

The books created for the series are printed on a special printer, then assembled and aged in a special workshop in London.

From left to right: Joffrey's outfit, Cersei's dress, Tywin's, Tyrion's and Jaime's armor. Tyrion Lannister is not as short as he seems.

Making a costume starts with a loom. Even fabrics are created for the series from scratch. Almost all costumes for the series were made in Belfast (Northern Ireland).

Some interesting exhibits and facts about the museum based on the Game of Thrones exhibition.

The Game of Thrones Museum in New York is hard to miss from the street.

Approximately 2,500 people visit the exhibit each day during its week in New York, with the exception of the first day, when staff estimate that more than 5,000 people visited the museum.

Even at 8:30 in the morning, the line stretched down 57th Street.

The exhibition, the first of its kind organized by HBO, looks like a real museum.

The large illuminated parchment map of Westeros at the entrance was created by lead graphic artist Jim Staines.

Game of Thrones fans are very talented artists. There is a whole section of fan art for this video series.

The weapons used in Game of Thrones are conceived, designed and built (or forged) by the Show Weapons Department in Belfast, Northern Ireland.

These weapons are breathtaking.

House Stark's greatsword "Ice" was hand-forged using a method called pattern welding and took three weeks to complete. The blade can be seen in detail through the glass.

The Armory contains two complete sets of armor for each main character - one for the actor and one for the stunt double. The helmets are made from lightweight steel to be more comfortable to wear during 8 to 12 hour daytime shooting.

Needle, the sword given to Arya Stark by her half-brother Jon Snow, was made specifically to match actress Maisie Williams. Arya is left-handed in the book, and the right-handed actress was specially trained in swordsmanship with her left hand.

Unfortunately, fans of the series already know this.

To represent the Starks as a close family, costume designer Michele Clapton chose to dress them in shades of warm and gray tones.

The mood of the movie depends a lot on the costumes. Therefore, they were made in such detail that they look like real ones, even in HD format.

Costume designer Michele Clapton purposefully chose the Starks' austere dress style without jewelry to reflect the austere and down-to-earth nature of life in the north. The only exception to this rule was Kathleen's trout hairpin, the symbol of her family, House Tully.

Although the photos can't convey all the gloom of the iridescent lights and gloomy shadows in the hall, they give a strong sense of the atmosphere of the series. The same can be said for the ever-playing theme of Game of Thrones in the overhead columns.

“Music has finally penetrated me,” said one weary exhibitor on the final day. “I hear this song in my dreams,” agreed another.

Incredibly detailed, life-size models (also called dummies) of Daenerys Targaryen's dragons were created from George Martin's descriptions and then reproduced on computers.

International company Pixomondo creates amazing visuals for Game of Thrones that bring dragons and White Walkers to life.

The mysterious mask of the shadow caster Quayta has a special hexagonal shape of the links.

Daenerys Targaryen's clothing in seasons 2 and 3 shows her growing confidence and independence. There is a mixture of styles from two different cultures to create her own look.

Game of Thrones creator George Martin gave one of three dragon eggs as a wedding gift when he married Parris McBride in February 2011.

All of the props on the stand (with the exception of the Iron Throne) were actually used in the filming of the series. There are no duplicates here!

From left to right: Maester Luwin's chain, "chess" used to represent the warring houses of Westeros on Robb Stark's strategy map, Jaqen H'gar's dart used to kill Ser Amory, Jaqen H'gar's coin given to Arya Stark, doll Ned Stark gave to Sansa .

From left to right: the Lannister mark necklace Joffrey gave to Sansa, the King's Hand pin, the House Tully mark.

There are very large crowds of people at the exhibition, so it is difficult to move around without hurting anyone.

Robert Baratheon's drinking horn doesn't look as epic as one might expect.

Robert Baratheon's drinking horn (left), Robert Baratheon's last will and testament (center), Rainley Stark's armor (right).

Davos Seaworth's finger bones are so realistic that they have dirt under the nails.

The crown of Robert Baratheon (left) and Reinly Stark (right) based on the components of deer antlers - the sign of House Stark.

The head on Ned Stark's peak looks as disgusting as the man himself is disgusting.

The Tall Stepton's hand looks like a real human hand.

The books used as props in Game of Thrones were painted by artists and then sent to a specialized printer in London to look old.

Peter Dinklage, who plays Tyrion Lannister, is not as small as you think.

Almost all of the costumes are made in Game of Thrones in-house at the Titanic Studios in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Even the fabric is created specifically for the series - it is woven on a special loom.

Handmade costume made for character Mikel Carragher.

Cersei's clothing style changes with her character throughout the series. In the first episodes of Game of Thrones, Cersei's outfits have birds on them. And as the series progresses, the birds become lions.

The metal belts worn by Queen Cersei are based on the Lannister armor.

Tywin Lannister's armor is even more ornate than it appears on TV.

Ugritta's boots, like those of other wildlings, have horns on the soles, like makeshift cats.

In order to make the clothes of the wildlings look authentic, they were specially dyed and smeared with wax.

For the wildling armor, costume designer Michele Clapton made molds of human and animal bones, and tied them together with gut-like latex.

Interactive stand "Black Bay", where you can feel like an archer.

The most popular part of the display is the Iron Throne, where fans could sit and assume an official pose.

Some Game of Thrones fans have been dressed in costumes from the show. This Dothraki was one of the many cosplayers at the show.

The Iron Throne exhibit is not the one used in the filming of the series, it is a fiberglass replica. You can have one if you have $30,000.

The exhibition itself is quite compact. For such a large number of exhibits, it takes up very little space.

To sit on the Iron Throne, you need to spend a lot of time waiting in line.
