Barcelona and Sevilla on Ascension Day May 21,2020

[prish]

Our extended family group gets off the Apex on May 20, 2020 and some of us stay on in Barcelona for a few days while DH & I want to go to Sevilla before heading back home. May 21 is Ascension Day, a big Catholic holiday in Europe and I’m wondering if museums, sites and restaurants will be open that day. I know most shops will probably be closed, but if some sites and restaurants are open we should be fine. Am wondering especially about the Alcazar in Sevilla and Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. 

 

What has been your experience during  visits in the recent past? A few years back we were in Firenze and if I remember right museums were open, as also most restaurants. 

 

One more question, what would be the best way of getting from Barcelona to Sevilla, train or flight? 

 

Thanks in advance, will be back with more questions once I start actually planning our trip!
