2025 Art Museums

Tucked away in Málaga, the Museo Carmen Thyssen invites visitors to explore an exquisite collection of Spanish art, boasting an impressive array of pieces from the 19th century. With its calming atmosphere and attentive staff, it's a haven for art enthusiasts seeking a serene experience. Unlike many museums, most works are not under glass, allowing for a more personal viewing. The museum emphasizes Andalusian artists, providing a unique lens into regional artistic heritage. With affordable entry fees and free admission on Sundays after 4pm, it opens doors to everyone, including families, who will find it child-friendly and accessible with credit card payments. A visit of 1 to 2 hours is ideal to take in the creative journey presented, especially the current temporary exhibit, "Latent Modernity," which delves into Spanish art surrounding the Civil War period. Enjoy a leisurely coffee at the pleasant café or find a keepsake in the well-curated shop to bring a piece of Málaga's artistic spirit home with you.

Sehr schöne Ausstellung mit grossen Räumen, ruhige Atmosphäre. Einlass war auch ohne Ticketreservierung kein Problem. Kinder bis und mit 17 Jahren gratis. Spezielle schwarzweisse Fotographie-Ausstellung von amerikanischen Werken. Schönes Gebäude.

Un placer haber podido visitar el museo Carmen Thyssen. Parece un museo chiquitín pero para nada, te puedes pasar horas disfrutando de las obras, incluso los techos de algunas estancias son una obra de arte! Sin duda, volvería a visitarlo y lo recomiendo a todo el mundo ya que es de 10, además está en pleno centro y de la que vas a visitarlo puedes ir callejeando y viendo las calles malagueñas que en cada una puedes encontrar algo que te asombre.
