Top 10 Things to do Good for a Rainy Day in Figueres, Catalonia

April 19, 2022 Jacquiline Delozier

Figueres is the birthplace of Salvador Dali and home to the Dali Museum, one of the most-visited Spanish museums. Not surprisingly, it is the place for the lovers of fine art. Close to the border with France, this Catalan city offers great food, wine, and beaches. Figueres is just 15 minutes by car or 25 minutes by train from the beaches of Costa Brava. Not as touristy as Barcelona, the city offers a relaxing atmosphere, quiet cafes, an historic Old Town and square, and even a castle.

Dali Theatre-Museum

Instituted in 1974, this museum was built on the remains of the former Figueres Theater, and features a broad range of works of Salvador Dalí (1904-1989.)

Reviewed By Janoshka - Tbilisi, Georgia

With on-line bought tickets (strongly recommended) and a speed train the museum gives good overview of Dali's talents - paintings, sculptures, visual effects in a labyrinth of a "building" that, already impressive from outside, contains garden and a "theater". Despite time limited ticket entry, the place (in October!) was still crowded but as one can move freely around it is not a big problem. Just wander around and enjoy! Worthwhile the visit to otherwise uninteresting town.
