Málaga is the major port city of Andalusia. Rich archaeological remains and fascinating monuments are the legacy of many civilizations.
From the outside, you will see the Alcazaba, built in the 11th century to house the Arabian Caliphs (kings). A steep path leads to the Alcazaba Palace, which commands breathtaking views of the city and the bay. Your coach will transport you up the hill to visit the palace, so you do not need to walk.
The Picasso Museum Málaga is run by two foundations created for the purpose of showcasing the works of the master. The Fundación Paul, Christine y Bernard Ruiz-Picasso owns the museum’s collection, whereas the Fundación Museo Picasso de Málaga owns the group of buildings that house it. Together, the two foundations are responsible for the conservation, exhibition, study and diffusion of the art, and ensure that the wishes of the donors are respected. At the museum, you will have time to appreciate all of Picasso’s styles and techniques (painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramic, and graphic works), along with an exhibition of pieces dating from 1890 to 1973.
