The Banyoles Art Centre is a new cultural facility in the city, located in Plaça Major, and forms part of the network of municipal museums. It houses the Gimferrer Collection.

The centre was created following an agreement signed in December 2022 between Banyoles City Council and the Gimferrer family for the donation of one of the most important private art collections in the country. The space, located in the historic buildings of Molí de la Plaça and Can Teixidor, has been renovated and adapted to host a semi-permanent exhibition featuring a selection of around sixty works from the total of 136 that make up the collection. The exhibition offers a journey through Catalan and Spanish painting of the 19th and 20th centuries, the avant-garde movements and contemporary art, as well as a representation of African and Eastern art. Among the exhibited works, visitors can see paintings by Rembrandt, Miró, Picasso, Dalí, Saura, Chillida, Tàpies and Llimona.

Opening hours:
Friday and Saturday, from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Sunday and public holidays, from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.
