Museo Carmen Thyssen De Malaga Entrance Ticket

The museum is very interesting. It was not neccessary to buy tickets ahead of time, but I did not want to take a chance after I couldn't enter to the Picasso Museum. There tickets are sold out weeks on advance and lines are huge @

They have a big collection of Spanish art which is well curated in a nice building. You can comfortably cover this in under an hour. On the top floor they have temporary exhibitions and when I visited they had works by Warhol and Miro. Everything is explained in English as well as Spanish.

An amazing museum with well preserved Roman ruins in the basement level - well worth the extra ticket price. Four levels of artwork mostly from the Carmen Thyssen collection are well presented, with a more modern exhibition on the top floor. Bags must be left in lockers (€1 which is refundable) and staff do not encourage talking at all, even when it’s about the exhibits. This did spoil our visit a little. There is a small cafe and shop but we didn’t visit either.

Great gallery. No advance booking was necessary. Well presented artworks. Preferred my visit here to the one I made to the Picasso Museum. Nice little cafe and garden patio. The slice of tortilla I had was warmed and very nice. Lovely little shop too. There are Roman remains in the basement but I didn't add the entry to these to my ticket.

We enjoyed a lovely morning at this museum. The Roman ruins in the basement were so interesting and we appreciated the Spanish collection, seeing many scenes of Spanish life and landscapes.

Very interesting place. Did a great job on renovating the building. Don’t miss the architectural tour on the lower level - frankly, was the highlight of our visit.

The painting collection is nice, worth seeing as it reflects an era, and local customs. However, it is not large, so I find the ticket price/experience high. They have a small terrace, quite lovely, make sure you have a relaxing break there. Their courtyard cafe has an excellent Lunch prix fixe menu: multiple choices, all good, fast service, nice setting, good price. Tip: you can access the cafe without an entrance ticket.

Not really one for normally visiting museums, but really enjoyed this. A really beautiful museum that has been presumably funded by Carmen Thyssen - excellent display of Spanish art. Nice coffee shop and book store Definitely with a visit.

This is one of spains good museums but the permanent collection is average and only the visiting exhibit are really worth it. In this case I should have passed. The collection in Madrid is better

Worth a visit small Spanish art collection spanning different periods. Its a lovely gallery space attached to an older building

Set in a spacious and well maintained building. Excellent artwork and polite staff . We attended American People exhibition - very good

Less well known than Malaga s Picasso Museum but quite a hidden gem. I am/was not familiar with all the Spanish painters (no Goya, no Velasquez e.g.) but it was a very enjoyable visit. Gypsy s, bullfighting, Sevilla a few centuries back, a desolated landscap between Estepona and Gibraltar, Andalusuan life in the past. Recommended.

Great museum, well worth a visit. A great selection of art to peruse. Excellent value attraction. A hidden gem in the winding streets of Malaga.

We were really surprised how good this gallery was and thoroughly enjoyed our visit.The gallery is large,bright with lots of amazing beautiful and interesting pictures showing Spanish life over the past few hundred years.I had not heard of any of the painters but preferred this gallery to the Picasso one.It also has big lifts to each floor, nice clean toilets and a great restaurant.My top tip is to do lunch at the restaurant, it is quiet, has air con and lovely food at reasonable prices and is a a great option when all the restaurants in town are busy.

An enthralling selection of art is here and very enjoyable it was to spend an hour or so in its presence. Extending from the 1600s through the 20th century. Seascapes, landscapes and streetscapes are plentiful. Portraits are another genre that feature prominently. Some lovely cheerful works by the famous Sorolla are great to view.

Lovely building but the paintings seemed to be mostly cliched gypsy pictures that I found a bit cheesy. A better collection at the Museum of Malaga for only €1.50

Decent museum, I like it a lot. Remember you can get into most museums free Sunday afternoons (including this and the Picasso museum) if you are ok with waiting a little in a queue.

We enjoyed the quieter streets on our way to the art gallery / museum. The 19th century Spanish paintings were excellent , the Nudes temporary exhibition interesting. Cafe was good ,( 10% discount with entrance ticket apparently :), we didn’t realise.

I really enjoyed a leisurely stroll around the museum. Some of the detail in the artworks was astounding! There is a large lift for good accessibility so three floors was no problem. Nice gallery shop too.

The museum is housed in a 16th-century city palace, which is a work of art all on its own. The court yard is magnificent, and once you're finished exploring it, there are three floors of fabulous art to see. Highly recommend.

Free entrance when we went over Christmas. Beautiful exhibition. Lovely crib at entrance. Well woth a visit. Definitely recommend this visit.

The lady on reception was excellent. On arrival as I use a walking stick she offered me the use of a wheelchair.It was done subtlety and without fuss and much appreciated. The building and exhibition was fabulous

Excellent place to stop and appreciate Spanish art over the last 2 centuries. You can see how the styles of selected artists change as time progresses. The displays are well exhibited giving information about the artist and period they were produced. There are also options of downloading a personal tour of the exhibition using QR codes, or simply a leaflet giving information about each piece. There is also a shop and a café whose cakes are delicious! Well worth a visit.

This was my favourite museum in Malaga. Everything was just so beautifully presented and they had all the audio options. It's a little hidden away but very much worth the search. Please go and fall in love with it to.

I loved this art gallery! I got the impression from the outside that it would be modern art, but it was a lovely collection spanning centuries. It had a calm and peaceful atmosphere and the wide variety of paintings were beautiful. The staff were very helpful and friendly and there was a locker where I could leave my suitcase. There was also a very nice cafe and a good shop.

A small-to-medium size art museum with a collection of quality works by Spanish artists. This museum in many ways is the opposite of the nearby Picasso Museum. How so? Much fewer crowds. No lines of online timed ticket holders stretching for blocks past sidewalk diners, beggars and street singers. Lower entry fees. No entry time pressure. Friendly and helpful staff instead of brusque time keepers. Most importantly, the majority of works at the Carmen Thyssen Museum are not under glass. They are protected the old-fashioned way with museum guards. Without glass and glare, it is possible to take quality photos with quality cameras and lenses. Consider using the phone camera for social media posts, coupled with quality images of the art work you regard the most. The cafe is charming. The gift shop has many art books and gift choices.

The visit was a wonderful 2 hour museum visit. The painting collection was impressive and well narrated using an audio self guide using my smart phone.

I booked the Thyssen Museum in the wrong city. The museum in Madrid would not honor our tickets. It was my fault. Be careful when booking. The Thyssen has museums in several cities.

A lovely small museum in Malaga. We enjoyed the art, the building itself and the thoughtful gift shop. Free admission on Sundays after 4pm

We would highly recommend a visit to this lovely art museum in Malaga. There is a lovely collection of Andulasian art at this museum. We also enjoyed a lovely lunch in the museum's cafe.

We didn’t have to queue for very long to go in here, but had to have our bag scanned by security before entering. There weren’t many other visitors at 4pm on the Sunday we were there. Enjoyed seeing the Sorolla paintings. Toilets on every floor. Lockers available for a refundable 1 euro. Small roof top terrace with room for only 11 people. Well stocked shop, but the staff member was more interested in dusting than letting me pay, so we left without buying anything.

Portrays Spanish life in late 19th century until the 1910’s or so. I was expecting more of the exceptional art work that was displayed in their museum in Madrid and the Prado. This failed miserably with the exception of two pieces perhaps which had French influence and were nudging to a more emancipated style.

Beautifully laid out art museum focussing on 19th century Spanish painting with works from artists of other nationalities and some 20th century works. There is also a room of "old masters". The cafe serves very good coffee and delicious cakes (lunch too) and the museum shop has a wide and interesting selection of books, posters and gifts. Tip if you are budget conscious, the entry prices reduce at 2.30pm, which still gives you plenty of time to view the works.

Great Museum if your are interested in the great masters / fin de siecle with a lot of Spanish paintings on 3 floors. Very well curated and brought togheter with a storyline on each entrance per floor. Can recommend.

Well curated exhibition of Spanish art in a lovely building. Particular focus on 19th to early 20th century. Many paintings of Andalusia and the local angle made it interesting to see how places have changed. For example, the sea front at Estepona with nothing there but scenery. Spent about an hour here and enjoyed it.

We enjoyed our visit to this museum. A lovely selection of art, much of it from Spain. Very well displayed over 4 floors, plenty of space to look around. Well worth a visit.

Check if free on Sundays after 4pm if so get there early as the queue grows very rapidly. There are plenty of paintings to look at and it is well worth a visit.

Varied and interesting museum with a very nice collection of dismiss art works. Clean and modern surroundings and not too crowded. Worth noting it is free entry for a few hours each Sunday.

Didn’t know where to go, but happy TripAdvisor steered us here. Real art and focused on Andalusia. Ages 12, 16, 19, 19, adults. Nice gift site too. Deal for arriving after 2:30 too!

Enjoyed the first floor the most. This is my kind of art, very little modern art interest me. Miss Spain sure had a magnificent collection!

Amazing array of paintings in a well displayed and airy series of spaces. It was a Saturday afternoon when I visited and the tranquility converging with the beauty of the art made my visit even more compelling. What a wonderful place.

So I love the big London galleries and this is much more like that but with a bit of modern art thrown at the end but it was photographic art on our visit so relatively easy to relatively to. As this gallery is part of a group there is a fair bit sharing of pieces so will be a changing of exhibits. The periods and subjects covered felt well judged and really picked out the uniqueness driving the Spanish and Andalusian art when the paintings were created. I suspect the devoted could easily spend 4 hours taking it all it. There is a lot of good stuff to see and if you're around Sunday afternoon it's free

Worth to visit as incredibly rich collection of paintings we were amazed by the quality of the images reproduced by Spanish painters of the past. A very rich collection of paintings, many by artists from Andalusia and both Impressionists and painters from the 18th and 19th century. We were amazed by the quality of the images reproduced by the Spanish painters of the past, their technique in making characters, objects and backgrounds appear three-dimensional

A gorgeous space with beautiful art. A serene oasis from the busy streets; not expensive or crowded. We opted for this museum instead of Picasso and so glad we did.

We really enjoyed the Thyssen (slightly surprisingly). Coming from Norway, it was fascinating to observe scenes, themes and colors somewhat different from our local artists.

...of many, many, many mostly local (Andalysian) artists from the end of 19th and beginning of 20th century. A loooot of irritatingly bright and glossy landscapes and pictures from daily life, some nice darker pieces, all in all- if you are not an art buff or afficionado, you can skip, as 10 e is not so little. Nice shop. The security was a bit annoying, hovering over you if your backpack is not at your stomach, but your back or if you accidentaly step on a demarcation line...

What a find! Hadn't heard of any of the artists on display because it was a comprehensive collection of Spanish, mainly Andalusian, painters. But the paintings were marvellous. Excellent explanations and interpretations. We loved it!

I thought tickets for this Was purchased for Madrid. I was not aware of the 2 museums with the same name I was told I could not get a refund. I purchased entrance at the door in the one for Madrid.

Visited this museum on 10th Sept Myself and 2 friends visited this gallery as part of a sightseeing trip. I have given such a low rating because at one point during our visit we were talking animatedly and laughing. I was aghast when one of the members of staff on duty came dashing over to us and indicated for us to be quiet, in a not very polite manner. I felt as if we were in a mausolean or British public library and were expected to communicate in deferential hushed whispers. I have visited many art galleries being an Art teacher for 36 years and endeavouring to open up the world of art to many students who viewed these places as precious and not for them. Art should be relaxed, enjoyed and accessible to all. The member of staffs reaction would certainly put my students off visiting. I must point out that we are 3 mature ladies, the rooms were virtually empty and didn’t appear to be a well visited museum. Oh !! The art work was ok if you wish to study Spanish art. I would recommend giving this place a miss and visit the Picasso museum , it’s much more welcoming.
