Juan Manuel Blanes Museum, Art museum in Prado neighborhood, Montevideo, Uruguay.

The Juan Manuel Blanes Museum displays Uruguayan paintings and artworks across multiple exhibition halls within a grand white mansion from 1870.

The municipal government acquired and expanded the original building in 1930, establishing it as a museum dedicated to the 19th-century painter Juan Manuel Blanes.

The museum maintains a specialized library focused on national and Latin American art research, providing resources for students, researchers, and artists.

Visitors can explore the permanent collection and temporary exhibitions from Tuesday through Sunday between 12:15 PM and 5:45 PM without admission fees.

The Barradas Space within the museum functions as a territorial project connecting the institution with neighborhood communities through cultural activities.
