MuseumsEmpordà Museum

Located on the Rambla de Figueres, the Museum is an essential stop for anyone who wants to get to know the Empordà through art. We invite you to enter it, to feel challenged by it, and to discover everything that makes this territory unique.

The collection exhibition of the Empordà Museum is structured around the concepts of “PEOPLE and places” and “PLACES and people”. This story is a contemporary, inclusive approach rooted in the territory, with a strong identity and emotional component. The Museum invites you to reflect on identity, memory and the Empordà landscape, understood as interconnected realities.

Nearly 300 pieces from the Museum’s collection are exhibited, with a wide variety of techniques and styles. Works by Salvador Dalí, Ángeles Santos Torroella and Josep Maria Cañellas stand out, as well as those by Tura Sanglas and Eudald de Juana. You can also see unique archaeological pieces, from prehistoric objects to Greek ceramics of great heritage value.

The visit ends on the third floor where you can visit the Museum’s reserves, the space where all the pieces of the collection that are not part of the exhibition discourse are kept.

L’Escorxador Exhibition Hall: Jordi Puig is not a Photographer. Retrospective 1991-2025

Jordi Puig (Barcelona, 1963) began his career as a musician, but in 1989 he discovered his passion for photography in Prague. Self-taught, he has lived in the Alt Empordà since 1991 and has developed a career spanning over thirty years as a photographer. He has published more than eighty books, collaborated with writers, and documented heritage, landscapes, and objects with a unique perspective.

All of his work —commissions, personal projects, portraits, happenings— is presented as a single body of equal value. The exhibition highlights his ability to create meaningful images. With a sensitive and thoughtful gaze, Puig emerges as a photographer with a profoundly distinctive style.

Ground floor of Museu de l’Empordà: metAMORfosis

metAMORfosis is an exhibition conceived by young people and addressed to everyone, exploring love as a living, ever-changing process. Through personal stories, collective reflections, and works from the Museu de l’Empordà collection, it invites visitors to question myths, highlight contradictions, and reflect on the many ways of loving: romantic, familial, friendly, self-directed, communal, or spiritual.

The project, developed by participants in NUC. Art and Content Creation Residency for Young People, is inspired by the narrative thread of the Museum’s collection exhibition and proposes a dialogue between the places and people of the Empordà and contemporary emotions.

Curated by: young participants of the NUC project

Exhibition dates: From 14 of November 2025 to 15 of March 2026
