  MUSEO DE ARTE REINA SOFIA
Perhaps it was the transferring of Picasso´s "Guernica" to the Reina Sofía for its permanent collection, which was the decisive milestone in it now being considered one of the most important contemporary art museums in the world.
The building which houses the collection was designed in the 18th century by the architect Francisco Sabatini to be built as a hospital, and which was later modified and extended on numerous occasions.
The old Museum of Contemport Art was situated in the university area, far from the historic-cultural centre of Madrid.
