The Casa Natal or birthplace of the world famous artist Pablo Ruiz Picasso has been an official heritage site since 1983. It is situated in the heart of the historic centre of Malaga, surrounded by monuments from Malaga's rich past such as the Roman Theatre, Gibralfaro Castle with its breathtaking views over the city, as well as the Alcazaba. This location has been re-openned officially by the King and Queen of Spain, and it's an important research centre about the life of this brilliant artist.

In 1881, Pablo Picasso, the most important artist of the 20th century, was born at No. 15 Plaza de la Merced. Declared an Artistic-Historical Monument of National Interest in 1983. The Birthplace and Museum now occupies the whole of the building. Since 2005, there is also another exhibition room at No. 13 of this same square.
During its existence, Picasso´s Birthplace Museum has compiled a collection of works of art featuring over four thousand pieces by over 200 different artists. These include Picasso’s sketchbooks in preparation for 'Las señoritas de Aviñón', the only sketchbooks of this kind contained in a Spanish collection, dating from 1907.
Its exhibition rooms contain various original objects, family souvenirs, and pieces made by the artist that document the family, social, and cultural ties of Pablo Picasso with Málaga. The birthplace of Pablo Ruiz Picasso also houses a specialist library and offers a continuous program of temporary exhibitions and cultural activities.

Reading other reviews it is hard to know what visitors were expecting to see. This is a museum that is telling us something about the circumstances under which Picasso lived as a child and the influences which helped to mould him. It is the building in which he spent time as a child, so it is not a custom built gallery for his work - quite the contrary. It has many interesting documents and artifacts on display with commentary. I confess that despite being an art lover (and artist) I am not a huge Picasso fan: I find his work interesting but not enjoyable for the most part. But he was a fascinating human being and this museum helps us a little to understand who he was and why he produced the work he did. This museum held my interest and I enjoyed the visit (more so than to the Picasso Gallery). Look on this museum as the first couple of chapters in the Picasso story......

Audio commentary - excellent . Great overview of Picasso’s life and works as well as family influences . Only negative is that I could not download prepaid entry ticket and add to Apple Wallet which caused headache at Reception who reluctantly agreed to give us entrance tickets !
