Es Baluard Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Palma

Thoughtfully curated and free gallery in the heart of the city - there is also a rooftop walking path with great views of Palma. Staff were helpful and accommodating.

Lovely grounds to walk on, and I’d recommend coming around sunset as it has a great vantage point. There’s quite a few Miro pieces inside and some other amazing artists such as Marina Abramović and Elisa Braem.

On a rainy Sunday visiting this museum was the highlight of the day. Of course, there were also a lot of people (because of the weather), but the staff were very friendly and I can imagine this place being very peaceful on a normal day.
The admission is less than you’d expect!
We went as a group and everyone have found something they liked.

I personally was the most interested in a little collection of Miro, a permanent exhibition about the museum’s collection with a curated number of art displayed and NACHLEBEN. EVERY IMAGE IS A POTENTIAL PAINTING.

We didn’t find some of the curators texts to the exhibitions very well written but appreciated there was always an English translation.

Because of the rain we were asked to leave our umbrellas at the entrance, which is understandable. But when we found out about an open area on the terrace we couldn’t go as to not get wet which was a pity, so we missed a very nice part of the museum.

The architecture is great but we expected to see a bit more. Overall a very pleasant experience.

The architecture and restaurant/bar terrace are absolutely stunning, mixing contemporary modern with a medieval touch.

Both exhibitions, permanent and temporary were quite disappointing and boring - one of them looking quite cheap and amateurish. There are only three very small floors but least the entry was affordable.

Museum in a bunker. Admission price is voluntary on Fridays. There is a small café on the terrace. The location is cozy. However, we had to wait an extremely long time for our drinks. So make sure you allow plenty of time. Palma was very crowded in October. Finding a parking space is a matter of luck.
