Museo de Bellas Artes de Granada

The Museo de Bellas Artes de Granada is Granada's premier gallery, and it's located in the nearby Palace of Charles V, which comprises over two thousand paintings and sculptures inside. One of the first open-air museums in Spain was the Museum of Fine Arts of Granada, which debuted in 1839.

Oil paintings, sculptures, altarpieces, polychrome wood, triptychs, and even a set of choir stalls from the 16th to 18th centuries are on display at this museum on the second floor of the Palace of Carlos V. The almost universally religious subject matter of the works is set off by the wide range of artistic approaches taken.

This is because many of the objects on display were reclaimed from convents and monasteries that stayed in State hands following Mendizabal’s disentailment in 1836. After three more years of preparation, the former Santa Cruz de la Real convent finally opened to the public as the Museum of Fine Arts in 1872. As of 1958, it has been permanently housed in the Palace of Charles V after having been moved around to various locations.
