Best museums, culture, and art in free city guide Granada, Spain

Museums, culture and art in Granada

Granada is rich with history going back centuries, with contributions from several diverse cultures and periods. Learn all you can from the city’s many free museums and don’t hesitate to shell out the super cheap entry fees to see what else you can discover.


Casa de los Tiros

This cool museum is free for EU citizens and cheap for everyone else interested in getting a history fix while in Granada. The 16th century fortress is now a library and museum with lots of fascinating sites. A favourite is the Cuadra Dorada, where you can see swords carved into the stone walls and ceiling beams, along with images of Spanish kings and local heroes.

Cathedral Museum

As is the case of most Christian buildings in Granada, the Cathedral was built on the site of the former Mosque. Work on the cathedral began on 15th March 1523 and it was not completed until 180 years later, in 1704, as building stopped during the Plague.

Monastero la Cartuja

You won’t find a more lavish baroque interior in the whole of Spain. The church belonging to this Carthusian monastery abounds with coloured marble, jasper, and porphyry as well as displaying paintings by Juan Sanchez de Cotan. Construction began in 1516 and only finished 300 years later.
