Palamos, Figueres and Dali Museum
Details
Begin your excursion with a scenic drive to Figueras, located in the northern part of the Empordà region, a sweeping fertile plain inland from the Gulf of Roses. Enjoy the sights of small towns on the way to the highlight of your day, the Dalí Theatre-Museum. Prepare yourself for an extraordinary experience while visiting the museum, which houses the works of one of the art world’s geniuses of the 20th century, Salvador Dalí. Built by Dalí himself around the former Municipal Theater, the museum is where most of the artist’s works can be seen and where his first exhibition was held. Dalí was also buried at this site alongside the church, which was also the scene of his christening and funeral. Upon entering the museum, you will see the huge collection of his most outstanding works. Highlights include Rainy Taxi, Sala Mae West, a scenography of a living room, which turns into the face of the legendary actress through optical illusion, and the enormous portrait of Abraham Lincoln. Also, see the crypt where Dalí is buried. Upon departing the museum, enjoy some free time in town and browse the shops in Figueras before reboarding your coach for the return drive to Palamos.
