Ana Cristina is very good. Very well informed. She made the visit very enjoyable. And we learned a lot. We did not queue. She was waiting for us punctually at the right place. It is a very different experience. We had gone alone. It is much better to do it with who you know.

Absolutely must-see, full of masterpieces. I'd recommend not to go round lunchtime due to the crowds. After 3 pm on Sat entrance was passable but at noon there were queues. Surprisingly not enough bathrooms for such crowds(

Everything very clear and complete. Only negative note are the fact that certain museums were free certain days and obviously it was not marked, so I could have saved money. However, I did not queue and enjoyed in full freedom of time and schedule the experiences.

I walked up to both museums, and the line was down the street. This past allowed me to go straight up to a separate counter, not only saved me time, but made it a much more pleasant experience.!

I chose the Royal Palace and Prado Museum guided tour with skip the line entry. Everything went well, our guide Lola was very nice, she told us many interstesting things, we didn't wait in line. Excellent! During the walk between the Royal Palace and the Prado Museum the guide talked about the city of Madrid. So, I highly recommend!

Prado Museum floor-by-floor highlights

The Museo del Prado is arranged across multiple levels, each housing a treasure trove of European masterpieces spanning centuries of artistic genius. To make the most of your visit, here’s a floor-by-floor breakdown of the essential artworks and collections not to miss.

Ground Floor (Floor 0): Gothic & Early Renaissance Marvels

Start your journey with spellbinding works from the early stages of European art. This floor explores religious iconography, vivid altarpieces, and powerful symbolism from the Gothic and early Renaissance periods.

Must-sees:

The Garden of Earthly Delights by Hieronymus Bosch: A surreal triptych that combines fantastical imagery with deep philosophical themes. Bosch’s most iconic work invites endless interpretation and remains one of the Prado’s most talked-about highlights.
Works by Rogier van der Weyden & Fra Angelico: Representing Flemish precision and Italian devotion, these pieces reveal fascinating contrasts in early European art styles.

First Floor (Floor 1): The Spanish Golden Age

This floor is dominated by some of the most influential Spanish painters, offering insight into the Baroque brilliance of the 17th century and beyond.

Must-sees:

Las Meninas by Diego Velázquez: A revolutionary masterpiece that plays with perspective, narrative, and viewer engagement. It's a cornerstone of Western portraiture, rich in both technical skill and hidden meaning.
Works by El Greco and Ribera: Their emotionally intense and spiritually charged canvases provide cultural depth and dramatic flair to this level.

Second Floor (Floor 2): Goya & the Age of Modernity

Experience the emotional gravity and social commentary that drove 19th-century art, particularly through the eyes of Francisco de Goya, one of Spain’s most profound and provocative painters.

Must-sees:

The Third of May 1808 by Francisco Goya: An unflinching look at the horrors of war and a landmark in political art, this painting continues to speak powerfully across generations.
Black Paintings by Goya: Originally painted on the walls of his home, these haunting, psychological works, including Saturn Devouring His Son, represent a radical shift towards expressionism and modern art.
Romantic and Realist artworks from contemporaries: Get a broader look at how art began to reflect inner turmoil, societal changes, and a deeper psychological realism.

Prado Museum maps and layout

1/3

Floor 0 (Welcome & first masterpieces)

Start your Prado journey here, where ticket checks, help desks, and audio guide counters make life easier. Grab a quick espresso at the café before stepping into the temporary exhibition halls. Don’t miss early gems from Raphael and Renaissance masters that quietly set the tone for everything ahead.

Floor 1 (Goya, El Greco & Velázquez territory)

This level is the heart of the Prado. Step into the moody, mystical visions of El Greco, then walk toward the powerful Goya rooms, his portraits, royal commissions, and darker phases unfold like a story. Nearby, Velázquez steals the spotlight, leading you ultimately toward Spain’s most iconic work, Las Meninas.

Floor 2 (Rubens, Rembrandt & the sculpture cloister)

Head up to explore dramatic storytelling through brushstrokes. Rubens dazzles with mythological energy, while Rembrandt’s portraits glow with intimate light. Goya returns here in rare pieces, offering another layer to his legacy. Don’t miss the Cloister sculpture area, which is quiet, atmospheric, and perfect for a reflective break.

Visitor tips

Avoid the jam-packed crowd by opting for weekday mornings or late afternoons. Early slots around 10am give you access to peaceful galleries, while late slots reward you with golden lighting and shorter lines.
Museo Nacional del Prado tickets are time-specific, so pre-booking is essential. Not only do you skip long entry lines, but you also get more control over your schedule, especially if you're combining your visit with nearby sites.
The museum is home to over 8,000 artworks, so winging it isn’t ideal. Prioritize top works like The Garden of Earthly Delights by Bosch, Goya’s Third of May 1808, and Rubens’ vibrant canvases.
Pick the guidebook option with your Prado ticket if you want the full experience. It provides tips from locals, artwork backgrounds, and an interactive floor plan. Great for navigating the sprawling collection without missing highlights.
The multilingual audio guide offers deeper context on hundreds of pieces, but it’s even better with your own earphones. You'll thank yourself during your 2+ hour visit.
You’ll be standing or walking for much of your visit, so comfortable, supportive shoes are a must. Dress in layers, as galleries can be cool compared to the sunny Madrid heat outside.
Keep phones silent, limit group chatter, and move to the sides of galleries when observing popular works to let others enjoy the view as well.
