Description

On this tour with a private guide, you will get to know the painter's workshop and the last house Joaquín Sorolla, along with his temporary exhibitions. The Sorolla Museum also has the most important works of the artist, classified in different categories. It is one of the most beautiful and homey museums in Madrid, as well as one of the best preserved houses in Europe. The building was converted into a museum after the death of his widow. Designed by Enrique María Repullés, it was declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 1962. The main rooms are still furnished as they were during the artist's lifetime, including Sorolla's large, well-lit studio, where the walls are lined with his canvases. Other rooms are used as galleries to display Sorolla's paintings, while the upstairs rooms are a gallery for special exhibitions. Do not miss this unique corner of Madrid!

MR SOROLLA

Unfortunately the Madrid house museum is closed for restoration but if you want to see the works of this painter you can come to Valencia where his beautiful paintings are exhibited in an exhibition set up by the "Banking Foundation" that I visited today. They are expected to return to Madrid in late April 2026.

Skip the private guide

The tour guide cancelled via email the night before the tour. I saw the cancellation at midnight and was able to buy tickets direct from the venue. The audio guide available there was excellent. You don't need a guide for this museum.

Operator response

Dear Ellen, We are sorry we had to cancel, unfortunatelly our guide got sick and we couldn't find any replacement. But we assure your that our guided tour is well worth it, the expertise our guides share with our clients is unmatched. Hopefully you'll give us another chance in the future so you get to experience it firsthand. Best regards from the team at Amigo Tours, Lorena.

Excellent tour, highly recommend

Carla was an excellent guide, she knew so much about Sorolla. The house is beautiful and the paintings and sculptures were wonderful. It was also great to see how the family lived in the house, the old photos etc were so interesting.

Disappointed

Was there on Tuesday 05/04: closed floor without explanation, part of the promised works not present or not visible (upstairs?). Coming from Bordeaux on purpose, and although the place is superb, I was disappointed.

Operator response

Dear Amig@ Thank you for your comment, we will investigate what happened in this case Dulce, Amigo Tours
