Museo de Bellas Artes de Sevilla, Fine arts museum in Plaza del Museo, Seville, Spain.
The Museo de Bellas Artes de Sevilla is an art museum at Plaza del Museo in Seville, Spain, housing Spanish paintings and sculptures from medieval times to the early twentieth century. The collection spreads across multiple exhibition halls within a former convent building, with each room presenting different periods and artistic movements.
The institution opened in September 1835 within a former Mercedarian convent following the confiscation of church property. The building underwent several renovations over the decades to house and display the growing art collection.
The convent origins remain visible through cloisters and courtyards that frame the displayed artworks. Sevillian Baroque painting dominates several rooms, showing how local artists worked for churches and wealthy patrons during the city's most prosperous period.
The museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Saturday from 9:00 to 21:00 and Sunday from 9:00 to 15:00, with shorter hours during August. The spaces extend across multiple floors, so plan enough time to walk through the rooms at a comfortable pace.
The Madonna and Child with Milk Soup from 1515 ranks among the earliest paintings in the collection of over fourteen thousand artworks. This early Renaissance piece shows a rare depiction of everyday life in a religious context that often surprises visitors.
