ABOUT Picasso Museum Barcelona

Take the opportunity to enjoy a huge amount of works from Picasso's early days through to his major later periods, including pieces like Science and Charity, Royan and the Las Meninas collection. Picasso's wife, Jaqueline Picasso also dedicated a range of ceramics to the museum in 1982. The Picasso Museum Barcelona is the third largest collection of Picasso's work in the world, behind the Prado Museum in Madrid and the Picasso Museum Paris.

The Picasso Museum Barcelona was founded by Jamie Sabartés in 1963 and is another of Barcelona's major tourist attractions. Jamie, a close friend of Picasso's, opened the museum whilst Picasso was still alive and with his blessing as he wanted all to be able to enjoy his works.

The museum is housed in a spectacular building in the El Born neighbourhood. The museum is a group of separate buildings that are joined by interconnections which also create a spectacular labyrinth effect which adds to the character of the museum.

The Picasso Museum Barcelona has over 4000 pieces of art and it's one of the largest collections of Picasso's art in the world, which includes paintings, sculptures, ceramics, engravings and sketches for visitors to enjoy.

The museum is a must for any art lovers, but especially Picasso fans as the museum was important to Picasso having spend several years of his youth in Barcelona as he studied at the prestigious La Llotja art academy, which also had other family ties as his Father was also a professor there.
