Before you go

Good to know in Málaga

Arrange the art days

  • Carmen Thyssen normally opens Tuesday to Sunday. Check its seasonal calendar before placing the old-town day; archaeological and extra exhibition options must fit the chosen visit.Source: Museo Carmen Thyssen — opening times · checked Sep 2026

Treat the two fortifications separately

  • Alcazaba and Gibralfaro have separate entrances and seasonal opening hours, with admission ending before closing. A combined ticket does not remove the journey between them.Source: Málaga city council — Alcazaba and Gibralfaro · checked Sep 2026
