A 5-hour visit that went by very quickly. Magnificent works of art, both familiar and new. Superb exhibitions, from the permanent exhibition, the Carmen the Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza collection, and the temporary Maestras and Jordy Kerwick. A little more reserved for Picasso.

Very easy to book and quick delivery. No problems.

The Thyssen is the perfect place to indulge in artistic brilliance. It houses work from some of the most renowned artists in Europe from the 13th to the 20th century. Being the second-largest private collection in the world, it consists of movements not represented in state-owned collections, such as Impressionism, Fauvism, German Expressionism, and the experimental avant-garde movements of the early 20th century. Once you book your tickets, you shall receive an email that shall contain your entry passes to the temporary and permanent exhibits of the museum. All you have to do is show it at the entrance on your mobile and you shall gain access to the museum without waiting in line! The temporary exhibits have limited entry and visitors are admitted at the assigned time every 15 minutes.

In the permanent collections, see works like Jesus Among the Doctors by Albrecht Dürer, Waterloo Bridge by André Derain, Les Vessenots in Auvers by Vincent van Gogh, and Portrait of Henry VIII of England by Hans Holbein the Younger.

There are several notable works of Dutch, Italian, and Flemish painters, along with leading works by leading Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo painters, including Antonello da Messina (Portrait of a Man), Fra Bartolomeo, Giulio Romano, Giovanni Bellini, Titian, Tintoretto, Veronese, Van Dyck, to name a few.

The permanent exhibit is spread across 3 stories – the ground, first and second floors. The second floor also features medieval art from the 13th and 14th centuries. The first floor is home to some masterpieces by Van Gogh, Monet, Pissarro, Picasso, Matisse, Edward Hopper, and Juan Gris, to name a few.

Finally, the ground floor contains works from the second half of the 20th century. Going through the different floors of the collection can feel much like traveling through the different eras of artistic expression, making the Thyssen the perfect getaway for art lovers and aficionados alike!
