    Museu Empordà

    Posted by chris2005 19 December 2009

    An art museum which loses out to the Museu Dalí but a good museum because it is free to visit with your ticket to the Museu Dalí (and you may as well as get your money's worth). It has some informative pieces showing the beauty and talent of the 'Olot' school of painters. When I went one floor was closed because of refurbishment but the upper floor was open.

    Museu Dalí

    Posted by chris2005 19 December 2009

    The museu Dalí is not obligatory to visit in Figueres but even you're not an art-lover its worth a visit.
    The best parts of the museum are:
    Mae West room, the tomb of Dalí, a copy of Dalí's most famous work -
    The Persistance of memory (you will recognise it when you see it).
    Allow a good two to three hours to see everything. It is child-friendly.
    Even if you're unwilling to pay the high entrance fee you can get some appreciation of Dalí's eccentricity by looking at the 'eggs' on the outside of the museum.

    Plaça Dalí
    Entrance fee is 7-8 euros
