About
CaixaForum Madrid is a vibrant cultural centre perched on historically significant grounds—once a 1900s power station on Paseo del Prado, now reborn by Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron into a sleek, modern hub for art and culture. The centre hosts a rotating lineup of temporary exhibitions and cultural events, while its iconic vertical garden, meticulously designed by Patrick Blanc, provides a living, breathing sculpture that draws visitors from around the world. With its blend of historic industrial architecture and contemporary artistic programming, CaixaForum offers an engaging experience that celebrates both Madrid’s industrial heritage and its dynamic creative present.
