Museo del Prado
Prado Museum, Madrid Overview
The most important Spanish national art museum is the Museo del Prado, located in the centre of Madrid. It boasts of having the finest collections of European art in the world, dating back from the 12th century to the early 20th century. One of the greatest art galleries in the world, it is located on El Paseo del Prado street, close to El Retiro Park, Alcaca Gate, etc., and is among the most popular cultural sights in Madrid.
It is based on the former Royal collection of Spain. It is one of the greatest art museums in the world. It has a brilliant display of art works by artists like Goya, Velazquez, Raphael, Rubens and Bosh. The museum is housed in a neo classical building that was opened as a museum in 1819. It has more than 7000 paintings, but only 1500 of them are on display now. If one is an art lover, it would be highly recommended to come with a full day's time. The paintings are exhibited in two buildings: the Villanueva Building and the Cason del been Retiro. Italian, Flemish, German and Spanish artworks can be found here.
