Pop into the ICO Museum, a free architecture and design gallery in the heart of Madrid. Browse a temporary exhibition of scale models and drawings, and see how contemporary housing ideas take shape.

📖

Full description

ICO Museum is a compact gallery in Centro focused on art, architecture and design, with temporary exhibitions plus lectures, workshops and guided tours. A recent show on twenty-first-century collective housing drew praise for its scale models and depth.

Entry is free and a visit takes around 45 minutes. Reviewers enjoyed the experience but would like more architects' drawings, and one visitor found it unexpectedly closed on a Sunday despite posted hours, so check before you go.

It suits architecture fans and anyone passing through Centro with a spare half hour.

Reviews

Was closed without warning or explanation on a Sunday at noon. Despite the sign confirming opening hours 10-14h. Expecting museums to not just close without warning. Hope I can change my rating if someday I find it open…
