    The finest collection of the master. Concentrated and curated so it can be digested by visitors in a modest visit. The arrangements by theme allow you to get a glimpse of the way Miro thinks, in a sense. Because it is not crudely chronological, it helps to have a simple grasp of the artist's career and trajectory from the surreal to the profoundly abstract, but you can absorb all that too, coming in cold. Such a beautiful and lovingly curated collection; this is my favorite museum in Europe. Notes: very good for kids (who of course are admitted for free) and, frankly, an irresistible gift shop.

    I enjoyed visiting this museum. The art of thoughtfully displayed and in spacious surroundings so you can move around freely getting a proper perspective. There are interesting displays inside and outside as well as views over the city. We got a taxi to the venue as the terrain is quite hilly around. You can easily hail cabs in the street to return. If you buy tickets online they are slightly cheaper. There is a nice cafe at the end.
