About

A wide collection of paintings on Madrid's Paseo del Prado, from old masters to 20th-century art, with the Carmen Thyssen Collection and temporary shows on the same ticket. The family program offers interactive tours and age-based itineraries. The permanent collection takes about two and a half hours, so with younger kids, pick a few rooms.
