- Katy ZackAugust 6, 2014Incredible collection of modern masterpieces from Spanish artists like Dali, Miro and Picasso, and many other world greats. Visit the courtyard to see a larger than life mobile from CalderUpvoted Feb 8
- Matt HansonMay 3, 2017Great and manageable selection of modern & modernist art classics. Crowned with Guernica, the selection of weeping women & sketches by Picasso, along with 3 dancing women, are astounding.
- RAKANOctober 6, 2022Nice museum with a great collection of history and art 🖼 free entry after 6 pm ✨outside better than inside 💫

- Y KintDecember 6, 2018Do this exercise: forget your phone and dive into contemporary art. The collection is AMAZING. Some of the most important contemporary arts are here. Don’t leave Madrid without visiting it! ✨👌🏼
- BrittneyJanuary 27, 2016Take time to read why Guernica was created (as part of the Spanish Republic's exhibit at the 1937 World's Fair, in Paris) - then look around nearby rooms to see & understand what else was shown there.
- Witold DonwitoJuly 7, 2016Huge museum, but if you are a moderate fan of modern art and only want to see "the classics", come after 7pm (free entrance) and go directly to 2nd floor, skipping all the rest.
- eric bornemannJune 21, 2018Amazing museum - allow at least half a day to immerse yourself in the recent turbulent history of Spain via many different artistic movements. Guernica and La Movida are obvious highlights.
- Valery UsenkoNovember 8, 2015A must visit museum while being in Madrid alongside with Prado and Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. Mostly Spanish art of 20th century with lots of Dalí, Picasso, Miro. Lovely courtyard.
- Adam RossMay 8, 2017This is one of the best galleries I have ever been too. We were lucky enough to visit when there was a Picasso exhibition. The contemporary art collection is particularly excellent.

- Ann OsipovaJune 25, 2019I expected more of this museum, the collection is not super impressive but it is still worth visiting. Free admission is on Sunday from 13:00.
- Andrew WelchMarch 21, 2018More compelling than the nearby Prado. I have spent hours staring at Picasso's Guernica that memorializes the bombing of the village of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War.
- Cristian GonzalezAugust 13, 2014Excellent modern art museum. Filled with Spanish masters such as Picasso and Dali, it's a must see spot in Madrid. Don't forget to check out Guernica.
- Wynn WuJune 22, 2013There are two ticket offices. The one on the side with the new extension is empty and very fast if you're not looking to see Dali. Dali tickets are for entry at certain times also.
- Vicki KolovouMarch 3, 2016Gorgeous museum architecturally, that houses masterpieces in a way that constantly educates and intrigues. I wish the cafe area was kept a little cleaner.

- Ged CarrollSeptember 8, 2016My favourite museum in Madrid, more modern art and great photographic of Franco era Spain

- Clau🌷July 7, 2013It might take a long queue for you to buy your entry ticket but just to see Dalí, Picasso and Miró masterpieces is very worth it! Don't miss "La Guarnica" by Picasso on the 2nd Floor.
- Kesra PenJune 15, 2015The building itself is a great piece of collections. You might need more than 5 hours to deepdive into surrealizm.
