About

Your experience

Unveil the essence of Spanish modern art

Step into the heart of Madrid’s renowned cultural scene on a guided tour of the Reina Sofia Museum. Home to some of the world’s pivotal 20th-century artworks, the museum gathers together visionary pieces by Spanish masters and international contemporaries. With your expert guide, you’ll begin your journey through the museum’s extensive collections—each space highlighting dramatic epochs and ground-breaking movements of Spanish creativity.

Admire unforgettable masterpieces

Your tour features significant works by unmatched talents such as Pablo Picasso, including his monumental painting Guernica, Salvador Dalí’s surrealist expressions and Joan Miró’s unique visual language. Absorb a timeline of artistic change: from the manifestos of Cubism and Surrealism to movements that redefined national and global perspectives on art.

Engage with curated collections and temporary exhibitions

Discover the museum’s thoughtfully curated permanent collections such as Avant-garde Territories. City, Architecture and Magazines and Apparatus 92. Can History Be Rewound?. Your guide will share the stories and historical contexts that bring each installation to life, offering you insight beyond the canvas. Contemporary shows, like Antoni Tàpies: The Practice of Art and What They Saw: Historical Photobooks by Women, 1843–1999, add further depth to your cultural immersion.

Explore in comfort with expert guidance

Whether you choose an English speaking, Spanish speaking or bilingual guide, you’ll benefit from illuminating commentary and interactive discussions. Tours are tailored to group interests and encourage questions to enhance your enjoyment and understanding of the art and its significance.

Soak in the museum’s historic atmosphere

Located in an impressive 18th-century building, once Madrid’s General Hospital, the museum’s architecture is intertwined with Spanish history. Hear stories about its transformation from a vital medical centre into a luminary of the global art world. Admire striking structural features, including the iconic glass elevators, and see how old and new coexist across spaces.

Continue discovering at your own pace

Your guided experience concludes with the freedom to wander galleries independently. Revisit your favourite works or delve deeper into exhibitions you found intriguing, all with the context your guide provided to enrich your visit.
