Where surrealism comes to life

A provincial city hiding one of Europe's most mind-blowing art experiences. The Dalí Theatre-Museum isn't your conventional museum: it's the genius's last major work, designed by him as a journey into his own mind. From the bread-covered facade to the Mae West room that only makes sense from a precise spot, every corner is a surprise. Dalí is buried here, beneath the geodesic dome crowning the building. Set aside some time. You'll need it.

Area highlights

  1. Teatro-Museo DalíDalí's total work of art: museum, tomb and immersive experience in pure surrealism.
  2. Joyas de DalíA dazzling collection of jewels designed by Dalí, exhibited next to the Theatre-Museum.
  3. Castillo de Sant FerranOne of Europe's largest military fortresses, with impressive panoramic views.
  4. Rambla de FigueresThe social heart of Figueres, ideal for a vermouth with local atmosphere and stately architecture.

Summer night tickets (select days only) include a glass of cava and music. The museum with fewer crowds and dim lighting is a completely different experience.
