CaixaForum Madrid

ArtHistoryScienceOpen until 8pmFrom €6Estacion del Arte / Atocha (Metro L1)

CaixaForum Madrid mieści się w dawnej elektrowni z 1899 roku przy Paseo del Prado. W latach 2001–2007 szwajcarscy architekci Herzog & de Meuron przekształcili ją w centrum kultury, które sprawia wrażenie unoszącego się nad poziomem ulicy. Od strony placu budynek zdobi ogród wertykalny autorstwa Patrick Blanc – jedna z najczęściej fotografowanych zielonych ścian w Madrycie. Centrum nie posiada stałej kolekcji; zamiast tego organizuje zmienny program najważniejszych wystaw objazdowych poświęconych sztuce, archeologii, historii i nauce, a także koncerty, spotkania i atrakcje dla rodzin. Znajduje się w sercu madryckiego Paseo del Arte, w niewielkiej odległości pieszo od muzeów Prado, Thyssen-Bornemisza i Reina Sofia.
