Pro tips to help you make a pick

Consider using the audio guide for deeper context, especially if you’re not already familiar with Picasso’s work.

Travel light, as large bags and backpacks must be checked in the cloakroom, so keep valuables in a small bag you can carry.

Check the museum’s website for current temporary exhibitions and family activities before your visit.

If you have mobility needs, ask staff at the entrance for accessible routes and allow extra time to navigate the historic building.

Photography rules vary by gallery. Look for posted signs and follow staff instructions to avoid surprises.

We got in very quickly, picked up an audio guide—it was very easy to listen to—and everything went perfectly. The museum is magnificent; the archaeological hall, located downstairs, is especially worth a visit—it features excavations of an ancient city from the Phoenician era.

The visit to this museum was our highlight in malaga. Besides the beautiful art displayed, we learned so much about picassos life we had never known before. They have his first drawing at age 9 which was amazing to see! If i knew how to doenload the picture I would. So because I can't you must go visit and see for yourself. The staff could not have been more warmer or engaging. The tickets were so easy to buy on line. Go if u stop in Malaga and breath in what made Picasso brilliant

The Picasso Museum and Picasso's Birthplace Museum are magnificent. The museum has such a lovely connection of works, arranged in such a lovely way, and including so much more variety than I realized existed in Picasso's works. In the Birthplace Museum, we felt like we actually "got to know" Picasso. The birthplace museum contained some of his earlier works, as well as lots of artifacts and nformation about his family and early years. In both places, staff noticed that we could use help maneuvering from floor to floor, so arranged for someone to escort us to the elevator and meet us at the next floor. In the Birthplace Museum, one of the docents let me use her chair, and instructed her replacement employee to take care of me in the same way! I felt pampered as I enjoyed these marvelous sites!
