Museu de la Xocolata (Catalan for "Museum of Chocolate") is a private museum in Barcelona, Spain, owned by the Gremi de Pastisseria de Barcelona (the city pastry-makers' guild).

The museum opened in 2000, at Carrer Comerç 36, in El Born, Ciutat Vella, on the ground level of an old barracks.

It offers a journey through the history of chocolate, from its origins as a spicy drink of Mesoamerican peoples to their delight as French chocolates.

Some of the displays are chocolate sculptures, including various well-known Barcelona buildings, and illustrations from various stories.
