The gallery is located in an 18th century palace. The museum opened in 2001 after a complete restoration of a somewhat dilapidated building. The museum collection is a collection of paintings by artists and sculptors from Alicante and the surrounding area who worked in the period of the 16th-20th centuries. There are works by H. Agrosot, L. Casanov, A. Hisbert, F. Cabrera and other masters. The museum has a program to support young talents.

Lovely little art museum in Alicante. It's free to enter as well! Unfortunately during my visit the second floor was closed, but that just means I can visit again when in Alicante! Staff are friendly and helpful as well. Worth the visit!

There was an unsettling vibe about the museum, different staff members followed us around the whole time. The art was absolutely phenomenal, but sadly the museum had a no photos policy. The building was nice and maintained, and had AC to keep us cool.. Read more ». I’ve got nothing to complain about, apart from the weird staff members which ruined the experience.

A place to go for art lovers. Nicely curated exhibitions of local artists. No crowds here so you can enjoy the art and escape from the city buzz and summer heat.

Great gallery. The building has a lovely, timeless quality, with ancient stone walls and beautiful wooden floors. Can't believe that it is free to get in. The quality of the art is amazing for a small city. I also noticed that the paintings di..

A wonderful gallery of beautiful paintings and worthy of 5 stars except for the hostile reception of the staff which made me rate it 3 stars..I would happily purchase a ticket but the staff I met could certainly do with some customer service training.. Read more »..

Wonderful museum with absolutely stunning art. The paintings are mostly from Spanish artists and made out of oil paint. The only minus was, that you couldn’t take photos inside as I had to find out… but still definitely worth a visit.

Small. Intimate. Worth a visit. One hour plus would suffice.
Some paintings with English translation - Picasso’s teacher being one of them.
Enjoyed a free musical evening - piano & student classical singers
