The complete guide to shopping at the Prado Museum

Before you leave the Prado Museum, make time for its official shop, where art books, exhibition catalogues, prints, stationery, and design gifts turn masterpieces into take-home keepsakes. Here’s what to buy, what it costs, and how to shop online.

Visiting the Prado Museum shop

Visiting the Prado Museum shop

The Prado Museum shop is more than a souvenir counter. The main retail space sits inside the museum complex near the Jerónimos entrance area and extends the collection through exhibition catalogues, scholarly art books, postcards, posters, stationery, children’s titles, and gift items inspired by artists such as Velázquez, Goya, Bosch, and El Greco. Many visitors stop here for official reproductions and well-produced publications rather than generic Madrid mementos. If you want something directly tied to the galleries you just visited, this is the most museum-specific place to browse.
