Very interesting museum! At first it gives the impression that it is a small gallery, but in fact it is not. The museum has a very interesting interior - a bonus to the paintings that you will see inside. There are arrows painted on the floor and it is very easy to move from hall to hall. The collection of paintings and sculptures is large and the works are from all periods. We visited it on a Monday at noon and it was very quiet. Entrance - 10 €

Interesting museum but with few great paintings and painters - except for Il Caravaggio and G. Bellini. The Baroque period is well represented, plus they have a few Icons which are beautiful. Don't expect something like Gli Uffizi in Italy. However, it was a pleasant and decent visit, in a nice environment.

This is the starting point for the tour of the underground tunnels, which was excellent. The MUZA details state that it opens at 10, but the tour starts then and they want you to arrive 1/2 hour earlier. It is open early and the tour will depart on time. Over 1/2 our tour group arrived late and had to catch up. As a result they missed an informative section about the history of Malta, inside the tunnel. The tour guide made it very clear to the late group that he was not impressed and he generally didn't suffer fools gladly! However, his knowledge and stories made the tour worthwhile. Sadly we didn't have time to visit the museum itself. We did make use of the communal non gender toilets, for which you need a code to enter them.

I found it a little overpriced. You can't enter the exhibition with a back bag or a large purse (which the will not tell you before buying the ticket). You will have to give 5€ cash deposit for locker and put your bag/purse there. The young lady at the gift shop/reception wasn't the friendliest (and I heard her being a little rude to some other visitors) I always like to visit the national galleries or art museums when visiting another country, I don't know tho much about art. But if you're not a big art lover and have an already full program for your visit, I would recommend skipping this.

A very well laid out gallery with lovely pieces of artwork. Contemporary feel in a very old building was done well. Nice cafe too. Loses a mark as we had to retrace our steps on the second floor all the way we had come in to get out again. Work was ongoing blocking the natural conclusion of the exit at the end.

Nice museum with a lot of art, both paintings and statues and some other stuff like pottery as well There is a clear tour thanks to the arrows on the ground. You end in the little giftshop where you also buy your tickets before starting the museum

Excellent view of traditional European art from the 15th to the 19th century. Very traditional painting from the period with some notable painters.

The first floor has just been recently covered, which more than doubles the amount of time to contemplate all the works. MUŻA is located in the old Auberge of Italia, so even its entire exterior facade is a work. Inside, there are different types of art on different media, many paintings and maps. Note that there are often temporary exhibitions, such as the latest one: TOPIA, which exhibited 1,000 facades of local independent businesses.
