Museo de Pontevedra - Edificio Castelao

This is a modern, beautifully laid out museum with loads of space to accommodate many visitors. It is the pride of Pontevedra, showcasing the art and history of the city. I found the early tools of the first inhabitants, dating back 450,000 years ago to be the most interesting. This free museum is a must-see for anyone visiting Pontevedra.

Absolutely lovely museum!! Amazing art, from Baroque to modern pieces.... very well curated and ea piece of art is mounted at perfection. It's a must visit while in Pontevedra

Probably the best mesum we've ever visited. 3 floors to Explore and discover + a temproary exhibition on the ground floor. Most museums that charge aren't this good. Staff were super friendly and helpful, lots to see and learn, lovely building and arhicetecture! The fact it's free to get in crazy! Staff spoke great English too!

Great Museum. Beautiful collection and building. Definitely worth a visit.

An amazing collection including things we had not seen before. It's free and beautifuly presented.

More than I expected for a free museum. Four floors of galleries from Galician to Spain. Highly recommend

Museo de Pontevedra is a wonderful place! Upon arriving everyone was very helpful and welcoming. We passed a large group of school children as we were entering and they all seemed very happy with their experiences. We have seen a lot of museums through our Spain.... BUT, we weren't prepared for what lay inside. The Museo has beautiful representations of art and artists in Spain from ancient to modern. The exhibits flow well and each room is very comfortable. The lights gently highlight each piece beautifully whether sculpture, furniture, painting, etc. Awards should go to the curators. It was delightful. As we left we were sad however that a fantastic book about the museum was not available in English. Please think about publishing one..

Great museum and must-visit if you’re visiting the city. Nice collection of Galician and Spanish art from mid-centuries till our date, great modern art exhibition. The entrance was free of charge, and the staff speaks perfect English
