Picasso Museum of Malaga
Located in the old quarter, at the Plaza de la Merced, where Picasso, was born, this museum is housed in the Palacio de Buenavista, which is a 17th-century palace of considerable Renaissance beauty. This museum houses an extensive collection of Picasso’s work (over 150 pieces), which is on loan from several members of the Picasso clan. This constitutes paintings, sculptures, drawings, etchings and ceramics. Also be sure to catch the workshops, concerts and courses given by the museum from time to time.
