Devoted to the exhibition of plastic arts, created by diverse artists from the last third of the 19th century through to just after the Second World War, this hall, opened in 2008, is located in a building constructed between 1881 and 1884 by the architect, Agustín Ortiz de Villajos, for the Duchess of Medina de Torres.
The building originally consisted of a height of four floors and semi-basement, but in 1910 two towers were built in the corners. After a series of refurbishment and restructuring projects, the building now has an exhibition area with an approximate surface of 1,000 m2, divided into three halls.
The Mapfre Foundation had another exhibition hall in Madrid called Sala Bárbara de Braganza, located close to the Sala Recoletos, devoted to the maestros of photography, which is now permanently closed.
There is an access ramp to our exhibition halls. The hall is divided into three floors: Floor -1, Ground Floor and 1st Floor, with an accessible itinerary by means of a lift. Its width enables easy movement between floors.
The entrance door for the disabled is double leaf and is 1.80 m wide, accessible for all wheelchairs.
There is an accessible toilet on the Ground Floor for exclusive use by disabled people, marked with the International Symbol of Access (ISA). On the same floor, there is a wheelchair on loan to make the visit easier, which must be requested from the security staff at the entrance.
There are free sign language guides and audio-guides with an audio-description.
