Madrids Museo del Prado is now measured to be home to one of the worlds most formidible collections of middle age art & statue in Europe. Certainly one not to miss during your visit to Madrid.
Housing the Spanish majestic family´s general collection in a appropriate downtown location there is no reason not to visit! Even more so considering that the doors of the Del Prado gallery are open to all free every Sunday!
One has to think that the pieces in the Museo del Prado were initially aquired when Spain was at the height of its power and had many trading links to France and Italy as well as then being the governors of Holland and Belgium. The wealth of the Spanish region at the time can be seen in the sheer variety of pieces that make up the gallery´s permanent collection.
