Thyssen Bornemisza museum, classical collection - Madrid, Spain

Madrid enchants you with not only with the dynamism of its modern infrastructure- but also the charm of its heritage, rich with several centuries of exceptional culture and art. After discovering the Puerta del sol or the Palacio Real, the official residence of the King of Spain, located near the Plaza Mayor, we will discover The Thyssen-Bornemisza museum. The Museum displays the formidable private collection of the Thyssen-Bornemisza family, a line of German industrialists specializing in steel production. Acquired by the Spanish state in 1993, the Thyssen-Bornemisza family's collection is primarily focused on European painting. The Museum displays masterpieces from the early Italians, Flemish and Germans, as well as the great masters of the Renaissance and the Baroque like Giovanini Bellini, Caravaggio, Jean Brueghel, Jean-Antoine Watteau & Antoine Van Dyck.
