This is the house wher Joaquin Sorolla lived while in Madrid. It is very well worth the visit, both historically and artictically.

A genius painter, a fabulous house and studio.. The house tells a story. His pictures that adorn and line the walls are the story of his life - his family and his career as an artist. The garden is sumptuous! Fountains trickle into tiled pools and the scent of roses overcome you as you wander into the garden. Check out... More

Most people head straight to the Prado and larger museums when visiting Madrid but the Sorolla is a little gem that you really shouldn't miss. The museum is his former home and his paintings are displayed throughout the house and with the help of the audio guide each painting tells the story of his family life. A very relaxing way... More

Lovely museum in Joaquin Sorolla's house. Relatively quiet compared to The Prado & Sofia museum making it a much relaxing visit! His paintings are superb. Not to be missed while in Madrid!

Never heard of Sorolla before, and really impressed by the joy and movement of his pictures, beautifully hung in his former house with its lovely garden. Audio guide was out of batteries so I had to use the free booklet which was very informative. A good idea to have the audio guide or the book to help you into the... More

Visiting the artists own home and seeing where he lived and worked. Where his family enjoyed their dinners, kids ran through the halls and courtyards soothed with running waters. IN the heart of Madrid this brings you to the heart of the man, the love of his family.

If you like impressionistic painting then Soroola is a must. The house has many of his paintings init but importantly is an important 19th century town houise as originally lived in by him with his re-created andalusian garden. The house is now an oasis in busy madrid and gives a picture oif what 19th Madrid would have been like.

The museum gives you nice picture of the life of rich people back in the time. It is beautiful and I recommend it.

Joaquin Sorolla tried to paint the Sea with many varieties. The Museum is a nice little thing especially compared with othe facilities in Madrid, so you really can have a pleasant visit there and enjoy the garden.
