Museu de Cadaqués: Reviews
Fantastic experience:
We visited this Museum that houses the Fundació Joan Vehí. We were surprised not only by the facilities and the attention but even more by the historical and aesthetic potential of the photographs in both exhibitions. Congratulations.

Recomiendo visitar el museo, que posee fotografías sobre Daly de los años 60's tomadas en la hermosa ciudad de Cadaques. Tambien incluye en el piso superior , fotografías del destacado fotógrafo Oriol Maspons. La atención , amabilidad y explicación brindada por el personal del museo fue destacable.

Very beautiful day in Cadaqués and the museum tells the story of contemporary art that has contributed to the promotion of this cultural heritage, I highly recommend it for you to discover the genius ♂️!!! A true discovery from sculpture to gastronomy, passing through theology without forgetting anatomy, all in all, it's a cultural experience for 10€, which is generous!!!

Fantastic experience:
Today we visited the museum to see the two photography exhibitions currently on display, one by Joan Vehí and the other by Oriol Maspons; both very interesting, two different focuses on Dalí and Cadaqués. Excellent customer service. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience:
On a visit to Cadaqués, we stumbled upon this photo exhibition on Dali. For a small price, we visited it with pleasure and what a surprise! The place has 3 levels. It looks new. There is exhibition space. The exhibition itself was very interesting. The reception staff are very pleasant and smiling. Thank you, ladies!
Translated from French
Fantastic experience: What a lovely little museum, located quite close to the church too. The receptionist was very friendly and I am sure she was part of the exhibition celebrating the culture of marriage and weddings in the town. I know for sure that; Rita from Hostal el Ranxo was pictured with her husband. I can say that, staying at her place was a delight. The exhibition of Dalí was great too, and such a nice intimate experience which showed mostly black and white images taken by his friend; a local photographer.
We look forward to your visit for the new cycle that will begin next spring.
Thank you very much
Positive experience:
The museum is also present on the street, such as on the cases of electric meters...

Fantastic experience:
I had wanted to see Joan Vehí's photos for a long time. A natural and spontaneous Dalí who is not posing for magazines or television, the Empordà and particularly Cadaqués of his time. Very good service, a beautiful place, and good price.

Positive experience:
We saw an exhibition with a photo of Dalí. The entrance cost €6 but we thought it was expensive for what was displayed.

Fantastic experience:
Very interesting visit. To visit it, you have to take a short walk (the public parking is 5 minutes away), which allows you to get a feel for the village landscape. Tickets are purchased right there at the entrance without the need for online reservation, allowing for some spontaneity. The content, provided by the Fundació Joan Vehí, focuses on the images of Joan Vehí about Dalí and the images of the village in the past. Images that can still be recognized on a walk through the town. I visited a temporary exhibition that amazed me greatly. 'Meli, Dalí, Cadaqués. A moment in Cadaqués' (1950-1990). I had the opportunity to see photos of a calm Dalí, nothing staged, stripped of his character. Surely the real Dalí.

Positive experience:
It's not bad, but it gives the impression that it's one thing and it's really a collection of photographs, which I suppose and understand that those knowledgeable in this art will appreciate, but I don't much.. and for the price it has, I wouldn't go back.
Translated from Catalan
We regret that you were not satisfied, still thank you for your visit.
Fantastic experience:
I visited this museum and the current photographic exhibition 'Meli Cadaqués Dalí, A Moment in Cadaqués'. Both the exhibition and the Museum I liked very much. A special place for these photographs and excellent customer service from the employee who provided us with all the information and conveyed her passion for the work. Thank you very much!
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Very beautiful walk in Portlligat, neighborhood of Cadaques, visit to the gardens of DALI's property, very playful with its little film portraying DALI's life. However, I couldn't visit his house because you need to book tickets a few days in advance online. But, it's just a postponement. Truly charming and so pleasant, I recommend this place.
Translated from French
Fantastic experience:
A great place. The temporary exhibition 'Meli Cadaqués Dalí' showcases all the charm of the village, the grace of the Catalan genius, and the hardships of life in this beautiful place during the post-war period. A very comprehensive expo.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Museum on 3 levels showcasing works by Dali over many years, you must love the surrealism of this painter, sculptor, the work is remarkable! No waiting and no need to buy a ticket in advance.

Unmissable, magnificent, museum!

Positive experience:
I really enjoyed the visit to the Cadaqués Museum, it is an interesting compilation of photographs from moments of Salvador Dalí's life.... I believe that if the number of photos were greater, the visit would be more satisfying (without wishing to undermine its current quality at all)...
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
Very interesting. They are black and white photographs from the years 1964 and later... of Dalí, Gala, and friends, depicting Dalí's life in Cadaqués and Portlligat. There is a strong connection with Joan Vehí. There are 4 floors with many photographs. In these photographs, you can see the private house and scenes from the lives of Dalí and Gala. Books explaining this exhibition and the life and work of Dalí can be purchased.

It is always interesting to have a small sample of culture within the vast entertainment options we can find in Cadaqués.

Positive experience:
Well, it’s nothing special. This museum is not a local museum about Cadaqués, but rather a gallery (mainly paintings, posters) about the art life in the village. For fans - yes. For the regulars - no.

Worth seeing.... but best to visit during the pre- or off-season. Otherwise, it can get quite crowded.

Positive experience:
The Municipal Museum of Cadaqués, located on Carrer Narcís Monturiol, hosts interesting temporary exhibitions throughout the year about the biography and work of Salvador Dalí and other artists who had connections with the Ampurdán population, such as Pichot, Niebla, or Picasso.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience: Small museum with changing exhibitions.

The museum offers little interest for those not initiated in art. For them, it's better to stroll through the streets of Cadaqués.
