Fundació Miró Mallorca – The Artist’s Legacy in Cala Major

Where Joan Miró painted, dreamed, and shaped his final masterpieces.

The Fundació Miró Mallorca, founded by the legendary Catalan artist himself, offers a rare glimpse into the intimate world of Joan Miró’s creative process. Set in the quiet district of Cala Major, this cultural complex combines his preserved studios, exhibitions, and a garden of sculptures and olive trees.

🖌️ Inside the Foundation

You can walk through Miró’s original studios — Taller Sert and Son Boter — exactly as he left them: paint-splattered walls, half-finished canvases, jars of brushes, and clay models frozen in time.

The adjoining gallery presents rotating exhibitions of his paintings, prints, and sculptures, alongside contemporary artists inspired by his work.

🕰️ History

Miró moved to Mallorca in 1956, seeking light, space, and creative freedom. The studios were designed by his close friend, architect Josep Lluís Sert, and remain one of the most personal art environments in Europe.
