I stumbled across this museum while I was seeing the sights nearby. It is well worth a visit and has an excellent display of all kinds of Picasso memorabilia and unfamiliar paintings and etchings. Pop in if you have an hour to spare. More

This is an interesting museum but I would not go out of my way to visit. If you are in the area and have about an hour to spend or if you are a Picasso lover than this would be a nice stop for you. Very nice presentation just not a wow for me. More

There was a tearoom... More

I was expecting this to be a typical "birthplace of" experience. it was so much more. It was full of Picasso's drawings, delicious ceramics, and even some beautiful, sensuous, erotic etchings. If you like Picasso, you will love this. More

The Native Home Museum is located in the building where Picasso was born, at the Plaza de la Merced. There are 3500 works of art by 200 artists and many of them were created by Picasso. Among these pieces of art created by Picasso are engravings, sketches and ceramics. Upstairs there is a room with furniture that recreates Picasso’s time. More

If you love Picasso this is a must as it is the house he was born in. Something of a pilgrimage and the art work was special. Nice location with a lovely square with many bars and restaurants to chooose from nearby and of course a statue of the great man outside where you can have your photo taken with... More

there are long queues for this visit but do not worry - people do not stay long! I suspect most people were there for the reason I was - which was I was in Malaga, the weather was not good and people would ask me if I went there or maybe not as the case may be. I am a... More
