Construction work starts on the Thyseen Museum in Málaga
By h.b. - Nov 7, 2007 - 8:19 AM

The redevelopment of the Villalón Palace is expected to take two and a half years

Work has started on the reform of the Villalón Palace in the centre of Málaga, which is set to be the home for the city’s new Thyssen Museum. The builders have started their work ahead of permission from the Junta to install a large crane at the site, not far from the Picasso Museum.

Málaga Mayor, Francisco de la Torre, has said that work is expected to last two and a half years, and has a budget of 1.4 million €. Neighbouring buildings in Calle Compañía 6 and 8, will also be restored as part of the work.

Once open the Museum will show an exhibition of Spanish painters from the private collection of Baroness Thyssen – 225 works in total including 37 works from Málaga painters and showing local scenes.
