El Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía és el museu nacional d'art dels segles XX i XXI d'Espanya, i corona l'extrem sud del Paseo del Arte de Madrid juntament amb el Prado i el Thyssen-Bornemisza. La seva col·lecció, de prop de 25.000 peces, abraça el modernisme espanyol i llatinoamericà, amb el Guernica de Picasso com a gran protagonista al costat d'obres cabdals de Dalí i Miró. El museu ocupa l'antic hospital del segle XVIII restaurat, conegut com a Sabatini Building, i l'ampliació contemporània de Jean Nouvel, a més d'oferir un dinàmic programa d'exposicions temporals d'art actual.
