The Prado Museum has a vast art collection and is one of the busiest museums in the world.

However, given the size of its collection, visitors often need help finding things inside the vast museum.

For this reason, the museum has dedicated rooms to a particular artist, period, or type of painting.

You can also find rooms full of decorative art, sculptures, prints, drawings, and photographs.

Once inside, you will encounter two main buildings: Villaneuva and Jeronimos.

Here’s a Prado Museum Map for better navigation.
