I spent 3 hours exploring this museum. It was my last day in Málaga and the air conditioning so welcome on such a hot day. The building itself is a beautiful building with a lot of history. The entry fee is very low but free if you’re a citizen of the EU. Bring ID to prove this. They have lockers to store bags etc. Despite the age of the building, it is extremely accessible with elevators on both sides and bathrooms on each floor. Part of the display shows the story of the building itself and how the museum came to be housed in there. I was traveling solo and this meant I could explore at my own pace. I started off on the bottom floor and worked my way up. I took a break in the second floor and sat on the stunning outdoor balcony overlooking the interior patio for a while. I used the beautiful staircase instead of the elevators. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I stopped at every display reading the information, hence the 3 hour visit! Highly recommend this museum as a place for all ages to visit.

Aunque no te interese el arte el edificio merece la pena.

Des œuvres magnifiques, un musée gratuit pour les résidents de UE, vraiment je vous recommande cette visite.
