    There were no guards , no hostess. No one to make sure people and children didn’t mess the place. A volunteer program would be a good thing

    Excellent trip on a rainy day, beautifully set out with something for everyone.
    Parking is a bit on the scarce side and there was a coffee ‘truck’ which wasn’t much use in the rain.

    This place will show you the history of his work as an artist , with a sample of the pieces he's done . If you're looking about his private life , it's in a different museum in the same city . They could have put everything in one place !

    We visited the museum mainly for the reason of having lunch in the restaurant which had been recommended to us. We enjoyed the Menú del Día which was excellent value at €12.90, very tasty and served in pleasant surroundings. A good place to head for if you're in the middle of Málaga and wanting lunch. We will definitely be back.

    What a great historical museum! I was really surprised. I was afraid of only “old rocks” but the explanation, the building, the collection is really great. The art collection is also very interesting. A must do!

    Nice place, interesting exhibitions and there are also analogue collages workshops during the month of May. Had so much fun doing collages. They have a library and a conference hall as well.

    This is a real hidden gem and worth seeking out. Rando's work is sublime, thought provoking and varied. Each gallery has it's own story to tell and the images are certainly striking and memorable. The welcome is warm and staff really helpful and informative. Free entry was a real bonus, although I would have been quite happy to pay.

    Excellent contemporary exhibition and the building is impressive. I say it needs more publicity but maybe better publicity is required. No tickets available on booking sites for 7 days. We turned up at the door - there were no queues and we were shown straight in.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this museum! As adults you don’t get many opportunities to play and create spontaneously: I felt this museum gave me the opportunity to! I loved trying out all the instruments, as well as learning about the history of how music has evolved both in Spain and globally!! Would definitely recommend a visit if you are in Malaga. Good by yourself, but also would be perfect with children/family too :)

    This museum is well worth a visit. It is a beautiful building and has really interesting exhibits. It shows a lot of rural Spanish life as well as Malaga history.

    Our second visit to this wonderful museum. Fantastic portraits and drawings beautifully displayed in the historic setting of Pedro de Mena's workshop . Certainly worth buying an audio guide which, contrary to other reviews, is available in English, and spending some time in the library area.

    More a homage than a review as it’s hard to know when a Russian museum will lend a Western European museum another artwork, let alone around 300 paintings including a number of iconic works. I am not aware of another Russian Museum being so prolific in its lending. The oh-so-bitterly-ironic war-and-peace exhibition was monumental in scale. At times the number of pieces could overwhelm but it had some truly moving works and finished with a remarkable collection of modernist paintings that took the breath away. The avant-garde exhibition was a delight with some familiar crowd-pleasers. The exhibition should have been packed - and would have been in London or Paris - but I was the only one in the galleries for much of my visits. A beautiful exhibition space, let’s hope it has paintings to show in the future.

    While observing the celebration for the Patron of Malaga, we situated ourselves nearby. The area immediately in front of this location is great for grabbing food and drink and the Malaga Cathedral is just across the corner. This building was quite impressive and colorful; however, I'm unsure if you can actually visit inside.
