    Fascinating place to visit with clear artistic history demonstrated room by room. Everything is well presented and maintained and the staff have a good knowledge when asked. The garden is suitably odd, it is important to walk around and look in all directions so you don’t miss anything. Fascinating place and well worth the visit.

    Went here for my first time and was very impressed. The castle was really unique- like nothing I ever have been to before. The outdoor garden was unique and peaceful! We went early in the morning at 10 and had no wait in line!

    No words to express our Gala & Dalí place experience. So magic. We loved the 'secret garden' with the elephants and the impressive swimming pool corner. And the inside is full of incredible details. Beautiful paintings and decoration. An immersion to Dalí & Gala universe. Just fantastic.

    (Translated by Google) This is an amazing place. A strong, beautiful Russian woman conquered the heart of a brilliant artist and Spain. (Original) Это потрясающее место. Сильная, красивая русская женщина покарила сердце гениального художника и Испанию.

    Interesting museum, and a good village around it. However it is essentially in the middle of nowhere so it's a case of if you go there, you might as well enjoy it but if you did not have to go there or are pressed for time, there may be other easier to access alternatives.

    Very nice and calm location. The house(castle) does have the signature of Dali, I specifically liked the garden. Excellent half day trip to include lunch in the picturesque village of Pubol

    Beautiful little castle with information of Dali and his muze Gala

    Gala’s mausoleum. Stop here if you are around Girona to learn about Dali’s latest period of his art and life. This is one of the three locations you should visit to track his life. Figueres and Port Lligat the other two. Nice little town to spend and afternoon.

    That’s a famous place which is mandatory for every Dali’s fan. It’s strange, exiting, weird, beautiful, shocking, interesting, mysterious, and unique. Don’t forget to buy tickets in advance. We visited it in December and there were a few people. But in summer there are usually a lot of visitors. The castle is relatively small so it’s better to plan in advance to visit with less people.

    The Castell Gala Dalí de Púbol, nestled in the quaint village of Púbol, Spain, is a testament to Salvador Dalí's unique artistic vision and his devotion to his muse, Gala. Originally a medieval castle, Dalí transformed it into a whimsical and surrealistic sanctuary for Gala. The castle is filled with artworks and peculiar objects, showcasing Dalí's eclectic style. Its interiors blend Gothic and Renaissance elements, infused with surreal twists that Dalí is famous for. Visitors can explore the lush gardens adorned with intriguing sculptures and the couple's personal artifacts, offering a glimpse into their private world. This castle is not just an art museum but a romantic ode, reflecting the deep bond between Dalí and Gala. It’s a must-visit for those looking to delve into the surreal and explore the personal side of one of the 20th century's most enigmatic artists.

    Great little castle, you can really feel the dalí style everywhere in the house and garden. Went in August and they only had 10 other visitors at the same time.

  • 4/5 Sarrion M. 5 months ago on Google • 42 reviews
    Lovely place to visit and expand your knowledge about Dali's life and her Muse.

  • 5/5 Ana G. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing visit! Highly recommend trying to catch one of the guided tours that take place ever 15 mins. Check the different times for each language! Every 15 minutes there was a guided tour of the ground floor that also covered the 1st floor and temporary exhibit on the 2nd floor. Really interesting facts that definitely make you see the castle differently. We got there 30 mins before a tour in Catalan and walked around the castle, then heard the guide’s explanation and went around the castle again.

    (Translated by Google) A very interesting museum, one has the impression that one stops in time, the rooms and the kitchen are authentic at the time of Dali, In the garage you can find 2 cars that belonged to Dali. The garden next door is very impressive, we can see that Dali and Gala liked to party and receive people. If you're in the area, don't hesitate to stop by. (Original) Un musée tres intéressant, on a l’impression que on s’arrête dans le temps, les chambres et la cuisine sont authentiques à l’époque de Dali, Dans le garage on peut trouver 2 voiture qui appartenait à Dali. Le jardin à côté est tres impressionnant, on voit bien que Dali et Gala aimé bien faire la fete et recevoir des gens. Si vous etes dans le coin, n’hésitez pas à s’arrêter.

    (Translated by Google) The castle itself, the art it contains, Dalí's genius and the mystery surrounding the figure of the Gala. All this in a fantastic Empordà landscape. (Original) El castell en si, l'art que conté, la genialitat d'en Dalí i el misteri que envolta la figura de la Gala. Tot això en un paisatge empordanès fantàstic .

  • 2/5 Joan V. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) People without keeping their distance, without a mask, it seems like a risk to go to a place like this full of French people who go through everything. Visiting the site and the devil town. (Original) La gente sin guardar la distancia, sin mascarilla me parece un riego ir a un sitio así lleno de franceses que pasan de todo. El sitio y el pueblo diablo de visita.

    (Translated by Google) It is a beautiful and well-kept place, we were not disappointed, the only thing we missed was a souvenir shop. (Original) Es un lugar precioso y bien cuidado.No nos defraudó,lo único que echamos a faltar fué una tienda de souvenirs.

  • 5/5 Carme M. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) If you like Dalí, the castle of Púbol is one of the essential places to visit to enjoy the imagination of this fantastic surrealist artist, as always a pleasure to rediscover the Dalí world. (Original) Sí t'agrada Dalí , el castell de Púbol és un dels llocs imprescindibles a visitar per gaudir de la imaginació d'aquest fantàstic artista surrealista , com sempre un plaer redescobrir el món dalinià.

    Another insight into a life, inspirations and visions of a genius. Building and grounds well kept, mesmerizing atmosphere

  • 5/5 Pierre-Olivier G. 11 months ago on Google
    A very interesting place to better understand Dali and its relationship with Gala.

  • 5/5 steve g. 2 years ago on Google
    Oh my days. Way better experience than his house. Such an atmospheric place. You can feel the love between Gala and Dali in the fabric of the Structure and the artwork. Get the early tour. Ask questions as the guide is knowledgeable. Spend time in the gardens at you own pace. Free and ample parking nearby.

  • 1/5 Philippe L. 2 years ago on Google
    Not worth to go. Just had the Dali's name. His wife Gala just spent 2 weeks in this Castle. Really a place to make alive the legend of Dali at every place possible.

  • 5/5 Dmitrii T. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice small spot to meet with Dali's personal life. Highly recommended

  • 5/5 Alexandra L. 2 years ago on Google
    Oh, this is an incredibly amazing finishing touch for the famous Dalí triangle. The atmosphere allows you to dive in the last years of Gala and Dalí, you should definitely visit it if you are interested in Salvador’s life.

  • 5/5 Lyubov R. 4 months ago on Google • 25 reviews
    An unreal beautiful inspiring place, an ode to the love of Salvador Dalí and Gala. You can forget about time while looking at the exhibits and paintings of a genius. The garden is simply beautiful

  • 5/5 Alfons V. 1 year ago on Google
    The last stop from the Dali triangle is probably the most unknown yet my favourite. Dalí offered this castle to his all-time love, partner and muse, Gala.

  • 4/5 eugenia d. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience at the Castle. I would recomend to visit It after the Portlligat House (as this was the place Dalí loves after Gala's death). Not much to see un the town apart from this place

  • 5/5 M S M. 2 years ago on Google
    My third visit. This time with a Catalan friend who has never been here. This time I enjoyed the garden the best. We spent almost an hour exploring all the small alcoves.

  • 5/5 Regína B. 1 year ago on Google
    Worth the trip. Nice little village around the castle. In the museum it's exciting too go back in time for awhile and enjoy Dali's architecture and art pieces.

  • 4/5 Eric R. 1 year ago on Google
    It's relatively small, but gives some insight how Dali spend his last years. The castle has some nice Dali touches. Reservation for visiting the interior of the castle is required.

    (Translated by Google) The castle is great to complement visits to the museum and Port Lligat. The problem is that we went there at the last minute and only had 45 minutes to visit it (but it gives time). The box office girl was a little too strict and clueless as she let a couple pass before even though it was up to us, which made us have to run harder to see him. But other than that, it’s great to be able to see it. (Original) El castell és fantàstic per complementar les visites al museu i a Port Lligat. El problema és que hi vam anar a darrera hora i només vam tenir 45 minuts per visitar-lo (però dóna temps). La noia de la guixeta un pèl massa estricta i despistada ja que va deixar passar una parella abans tot i que ens tocava a nosaltres, el que va fer que haguéssim de córrer més per veure'l. Però a banda d'això, està molt bé poder-lo veure.

    (Translated by Google) This museum in the Castell Gala Salvador Dalí de Púbol, about 40 minutes drive from Figueres, shows the life of the 70s very nicely - well, by very special people, but with a lot of time coloring. Dalí bought the castle in 1968 and had it furnished by Gala. The latter is buried there in a crypt. There would have been room for Dalí at her side after his death, as you can see - but he decided otherwise before his death. Anyone who has missed something personal in the more famous Dalí Museum in Figueres has come to the right place. (Original) Dieses Museum im Castell Gala Salvador Dalí de Púbol, ungefähr 40 Minuten Fahrzeit von Figueres entfernt, stellt sehr schön das Leben der 70er dar - gut, von ganz speziellen Menschen, aber mit viel Zeitkolorit. Dalí kaufte die Burg 1968 und ließ sie von Gala einrichten. Letztere ist dort in einer Gruft beigesetzt. Platz wäre für Dalí nach seinem Tod an ihrer Seite gewesen, wie man sieht - aber das hat er vor seinem Tode anders bestimmt. Jeder, der im bekannteren Dalí-Museum in Figueres Persönliches vermisst hat, ist hier genau richtig.

    (Translated by Google) DALI TRIANGLE - ANGLE ONE If you are in the know and decided to visit all the sights associated with the name of Dali in Catalonia, start here. There are no crowds of tourists like in Figueres or time-based excursions like Port Lligat. Here is an intimate place for the intimate life of the GREAT and his girlfriend ... A tiny town, a small house - a castle that looks nothing like a castle, small rooms, no pathos in the interiors: everything is focused on HER comfort and HER joy. A small park saturated with the attitude of the GREAT; in my opinion, this park should have been thinned and cleaned long ago (landscape design), because sculptures, small forms, and the pool over the past years have simply disappeared in lush thickets, through which it is not easy to get through even along the alleys. On the relief just below the house there is a fairly large free parking lot. The museum is open from March 15 to December 31. (Original) ТРЕУГОЛЬНИК ДАЛИ - УГОЛ ПЕРВЫЙ Если Вы в теме и решили посетить в Каталонии все достопримечательности, связанные с именем Дали - начинайте отсюда. Здесь нет толп туристов, как в Фигерасе или записей на экскурсии по времени, как в Порт Льигат. Здесь - интимное место для интимной жизни ВЕЛИКОГО и его подруги... Крохотный городок, маленький дом - замок, внешне на замок совсем не похожий, небольшие помещения, никакого пафоса в интерьерах: всё заточено на ЕЁ комфорт и ЕЁ радости. Небольшой парк, насыщенный мироощущением ВЕЛИКОГО; на мой взгляд этот парк следовало бы давно проредить и почистить (ландшафтный дизайн), потому что и скульптуры, и малые формы, и бассейн за прошедшие годы просто пропали в буйных зарослях, через которые непросто пробраться даже по аллеям. По рельефу чуть ниже дома достаточно большая бесплатная автостоянка. Музей работает с 15 марта по 31 декабря.

  • 5/5 Ferran R. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's worth it, especially on a good day to enjoy the garden. I didn’t know Gala is buried here. And God give me the golden taps of Gala's bath ... (Original) Val la pena, sobretot un dia que faci bo per apreciar el jardi. No sabia que Gala està enterrada aquí. I Déu n'hi do les aixetes en or del bany de Gala...

    (Translated by Google) Gala-Dali Castle a must see if you stop here. The castle where they came in the last years of Gala, very successful replicas. Very small groups due to covid and a guide informs you of each room. (Original) Castillo de Gala-Dali una visita obligada si paras por aqui.

  • 5/5 Nick D. 6 years ago on Google
    This is a must for all Dali fans. Is is more sombre than the museum in Figueras and his house in Port Lligat but it is fantastic. The small town is also wonderful. I would go there again.

  • 3/5 Olli J. 7 years ago on Google
    Went with a guided tour, luckily in a small group (only 6pp), as the rooms are somewhat small. Interesting history about Gala's and Dali's relationship. Not much to experience or see without a guide.

  • 1/5 Carmen A. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is very badly organized. Very expensive, not to have a guide. Without explanation of any kind. A great disappointment in quality and price. The castle is very beautiful, but that is a separate thing, the excessive price !!!!! The guided tour would have to be aural, not read. Besides, the qr code gives an error. Big disappointment !!!! (Original) Esta muy mal organizado. Muy caro, para no tener guía. Sin explicación de ningún tipo. Una gran decepción calidad y precio. El castillo es muy bonito, pero eso es cosa aparte, el precio excesivo!!!!! La visita guiada tendría que ser auditiva, no leída. A parte el código qr da error. Gran decepción!!!!
