Prado Museum
Comprised of the former Spanish Royal Collection, the Prado is a beautiful old castle with more than a thousand fascinating works on display. One of the world's premier art galleries, the more than 7,000 paintings held in the Museo del Prado's collection are a penetrating look at the celebrated history of Spanish art. Prado offers free entrance from 18:00-20:00 on weekdays, and 17:00-19:00 on Sundays and holidays. This is often the busiest time and access to temporary exhibitions isn't included.
