High on any visitor’s "must see" list when traveling to Madrid are the city’s fine art museums. The capital city is overflowing with classic, contemporary, abstract, expressionist and experimental art.
What many may not know is that many of the best museums offer free admission, at least at some point during the week! At the famous Museo del Prado that houses the permanent collection works by El Greco, Ribera, Zurbarán, Murillo, Alonso Cano, Velázquez, Goya and more the entrance is free from Tuesday to Sunday, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. and on Sundays from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
Other free days during the whole year are the Constitution Day (December 6), November 19, National Holiday (October 12), May 2, and on International Museum Day (May 18). Keep in mind while organizing your trip to Madrid, you could save a lot of money and enjoy the masterpieces of great artists.
Check out Picasso’s Guernica, Dali’s Figure at a Window or Juan Gris’ Portrait of Josette Grisat at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia. Also here there's free admission on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., on Saturday from 2:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. and on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
