The Picasso Museum in Barcelona, a collection of over 4,000 works by the Spanish painter

Modernised in 2009, the Picasso Museum presents a collection of paintings by the master, spread across three bourgeois residences. Located in the heart of the Born district, close to the Gothic Quarter, it contains works he painted as a child, when he lived with his parents in Malaga. These include a number of self-portraits, the Meninas series inspired by Velázquez, eight depictions of the Pichones, etchings relating to bullfighting, and lithographs.

Here you will find the key to understanding Picasso's creative thinking. The works of the Spanish artist are preserved here, documenting the evolution of his art and the different phases of his creation. Picasso was born in Malaga, but developed a deep affection for Barcelona and decided that his museum would one day be located there. Admission is free every Sunday afternoon and all day on the first Sunday of the month.
