What's the Best Time to Visit Thyssen Museum?

Peak Season vs Low Season

Peak Season: April - September

During the peak season (April to September), Thyssen Museum experiences its highest influx of visitors. These months are characterized by pleasant weather, making it an ideal time to explore the museum and its surroundings. However, it's important to be prepared for larger crowds and potentially longer waiting times to access popular exhibits. As one of the most renowned art museums in the world, Thyssen attracts art enthusiasts, tourists, and locals alike during this period.

Low Season: October - March

The low season (October to March) offers a different experience at Thyssen Museum. Although the weather may be colder, and there might be occasional rain showers, visiting during these months has its advantages. With fewer tourists around, the museum provides a more serene and tranquil environment, allowing visitors to immerse themselves fully in the exceptional art collection without the hustle and bustle of peak season crowds.

Weekday vs Weekend

The Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum is one of the most popular museums in Madrid, and it can get crowded, especially on weekends. If you're looking to avoid crowds, you may want to consider visiting on a weekday.

On weekdays, the museum offers a quieter and more intimate setting, perfect for art enthusiasts seeking a contemplative visit. With fewer visitors, it's easier to navigate and fully appreciate the diverse art collection. Weekends, however, bring a lively atmosphere, drawing in both locals and tourists. While the museum might be busier, it also hosts special events and interactive programs, adding a dynamic touch to the visit.

How Long Should I Spend at the Thyssen Museum?

Most people recommend spending at least two hours to see the highlights. If you're interested in seeing everything, you could easily spend three or four hours.

The museum is divided into four floors, each of which focuses on a different period of art history. The first floor has a collection of medieval and Renaissance art, the second floor has Baroque and Rococo art, the third floor has Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art, and the fourth floor has Modern and Contemporary art.

If you're short on time, we recommend focusing on the first three floors, which contain some of the museum's most famous paintings. These include Duccio's Madonna and Child, Gauguin's The Yellow Christ, and Picasso's Les Demoiselles d'Avignon.
