Pablo Gargallo Museum
Museo Pablo Gargallo
A museum devoted to the work of Aragonese modern sculptor Gargallo, housed in a Renaissance palace, with distinctive openwork metal sculptures.
Pablo Gargallo was a master sculptor and a contemporary of Picasso. He is famous for shaping figures from cut sheets of iron and copper, creating form through negative space. The original of his celebrated work The Prophet is on display here. The museum is housed in the 16th-century Palace of the Counts of Argillo, and both the courtyard and the galleries are worth seeing in their own right. Admission is about 4 euros, and a visit takes about an hour.
