Picasso Museum
Best time to visit
Early weekday mornings, right at opening, keep galleries quieter and offer better viewing of the small, intimate works. Shoulder-season afternoons light the courtyards and usually have shorter queues than mid-summer days.
Budget tips
General admission around €12-14, reduced rates for EU youth, seniors and students, and timed tickets are cheaper when booked online. Free entry is often offered on the first Sunday of the month and during certain evening hours; check current schedules, and consider multi-attraction passes like the Articket if you plan more museums.

Insider tips
- Buy a timed ticket online to skip lines and guarantee your entry slot.
- Start on the upper floors and work down to avoid backtracking when rooms get busy later.
