Museo Sorolla occupies the house and studio the Valencian painter Joaquín Sorolla built for his family in the early 20th century, its rooms kept much as he left them and hung with his light-filled scenes of the Spanish coast and family life. The museum is currently closed for a major expansion and accessibility overhaul by architects Nieto Sobejano, which will roughly double its exhibition space with new galleries and an auditorium. It is expected to reopen in October 2026 with a first phase covering the new wings; the historic house itself will follow in a second renovation phase.
