Fantastic experience:
The place is beautiful. Entry is free. At the exhibition, we were fortunate to have Gabi, he works there and is not a guide, but he explains everything you want. My friends and I had an extremely pleasant experience learning about part of Greek mythology and its gods. Gabi, as I mentioned, cleared up every doubt we had. It's clear that he loves his job and the passion he has for sharing history is exceptional. He will be with you at all times, caring and anticipating anything. This kind of attitude is really delightful!!! Would I go back? A thousand times. Like if you like my review. I love helping others have better experiences. ☺️☺️

Good exhibition of surrealism with personal guides from the Caixa Forum Girona. Highly recommended.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Currently, there is an exhibition on surrealism. It is worth watching the video they project in a room at the end of the exhibition about the reconstruction of the building. The staff is extremely friendly. I saw a man carelessly sitting on the pedestal of one of the exhibited works, at risk of damaging it, and instead of calling his attention, they brought him a chair.

Fantastic experience:
The first time I visited La Caixaforum Girona was today to see the exhibition Objects of Desire. Surrealism and Design. Spectacular, fantastic, and on top of that free. I am very grateful for the organization, the idea, and the way of exhibition. There are videos, furniture, exclusive photos with explanations. Bravo! I loved the dress, the lips sofa, the Dalí and Breton movie, and more. Besides, we saw an interesting video about the building of the Forum itself. Highly recommended, especially in the afternoon, there were barely any people. The staff is also very friendly.
