Thyssen Museum

Created in 1988, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection Foundation pioneered a new formula for the private management of public assets in Spain, and its efficacy has been apparent ever since the museum opened its doors in October 1992. Since that time, both the museum and the foundation that manages it have grown and evolved, expanding the collections and facilities with the addition of the Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection as a long-term loan in 2004 and the extension of the Villahermosa Palace, as well as increasing the number and variety of activities, temporary exhibitions and educational programmes. The team of people who makes the institution’s daily existence possible has also been augmented, but the motor that keeps the foundation running smoothly has always been their drive and motivation.

Royal Palace and Descalzas Reales:

Descalzas Reales is a historic Franciscan monastery which the Vatican has made available for visits during certain hours of the day.  This ancient palace converted into a convent, combines an important collection of art behind its walls with portraits from the House of Austria, who were key figures in the history of Europe. History and art combine in this unique ensemble in which the staircase, covered in mural paintings, is an unforgettable tribute to Barroque arte.

The Royal Palace, the second stop in this cultural tour, takes us back to a time of change in dynasty, at the beginning of the XVIII century.  Following the fire in the old palace, on Christmas Eve of 1734, King Felipe V decided to build a new palace, a trend that his successors continued together with the best artist of the time. The result is the current Royal Palace, museum of paintings, architecture and decorative art, that offers us a surprising ensemble such as the Throne Room, Gasparini, porcelain rooms, fine wooden furniture, painted ceilings and murals, antique furniture, watches and violins.

Timetable
10:30  – 15:30 h.
