I spent the whole day going from one museum to the next. Each was unique and featured thoughtfully curated exhibitions. It was very easy to use the pre-paid ticket although I wasn't initially aware that you have to take the QR code to the ticket window to exchange for an actual ticket. The close proximity of the museums to each other was a huge incentive to keep moving. It was fabulous.

The visit was really enjoyable, having already purchased the ticket online we did not queue to get in and after a brief initial bewilderment as to where to start the tour, after the initial directions given to us we were able to visit the entire museum on our own. A really interesting experience, with so many beautiful works to see...you truly leave culturally enriched. I highly recommend it!!!

Interesting museum with Great art exhibits. Too bad that during the time I was there one floor was closed to the public. In any case enviable experience, excellent management of access with the ticket already ready: no lines!

It was really really wonderful to see all the wonderful paintings. I knew it was a very large museum but it was really quite difficult and complicated to navigate the route. I think the path through the museum needs to be more user friendly.

Your experience

The Reina Sofia Museum is home to the greatest Spanish artists from the 20th century which attracts more than 3.5 million visitors annually. The collections consist of 1,653 paintings and 707 sculptures along with a horde of paperwork, graphic art, and photographs.

However, the museum is most famous for the Guernica. This prolific piece by Pablo Picasso symbolizes Spain’s transition to democracy and is a universally recognized icon for the principles of anti-war and anti-autocracy. With lush gardens and vaulted hallways, walking through this artsy abode is a delight in itself and that statement doesn’t even account for the artworks inside.

Browse through over 20 Dali pieces, a full room dedicated to Joan Miro’s paintings, and a room on Women at the Forefront featuring works by the iconic Angeles Santos and Delhy Tejero. This modern art museum is a wonderland of art! With a simple upgrade, you can tune into the official audio guide to fill your stroll of Reina Sofia with colorful insights into art and the artist's life. A must if you want to develop a deep appreciation and understanding of art.
