The Can Mario Museum in the Costa Brava was opened in 2004 by Fundació Vila Casas, a non-profit organization founded in 1986 to support modern arts and medical research led by Antoni Vila Casas, a pharmacist and a philanthropist.

The museum occupies an old factory, built in 1901, that once had been the world leader in cork production. The factory was known as Can Mario.

The Can Mario Museum houses more than 200 artworks of sculptors who had lived and worked in Catalonia. One part of the permanent collection is located outdoors, in the garden Jardí de Can Mario right next to the museum entrance.
