Positives:

  • Gothic palace setting: Wander secluded courtyards for quiet moments and atmospheric photo spots.
  • Depth without effort: Drop-in Focus talks enrich your visit without extra booking.

Challenges:

  • Peak-time crowds: Midday visits can be busy; consider early or late time slots.
  • No food or drink: Plan to dine nearby before or after, as the museum prohibits refreshments.
  • No tripods allowed: Bring only a phone or small camera; professional gear must stay at home.

I absolutely loved Picasso. And if I may dare to say this, I loved it more than Prado! It was very easy to understand Picasso's progression of thought and art work as he grew in life. His works evolve from simple sketches to advance arts and there is certainly a reflection of his life's events impacting his art works. The audio guide worked well, though I really wish audio guides would somehow sim...

Great art and story telling. Well presented. Clean and well maintained facilities. Staff are all courteous and well informed. You can buy tickets from 9AM to 2PM if you want to visit on the same day, same hours. After that time tickets normally are sold out. It's recommended to get the tour with the audio version to appreciate the experience more.

Very good museum. Not many visitors, spacious halls, very well made audio guide, I recommend it. I have not seen Picasso's youth works before, they are amazing, he was a child prodigy. It is interesting to trace Picasso's development as an artist and changes in his work.
