The Museo ABC, located in the Conde Duque neighborhood of Madrid, is a unique space in the world dedicated to drawing, illustration, and graphic design. Opened in 2010 inside a former beer factory, it houses the renowned ABC Collection, the largest archive of graphic art and illustration in Spain, with over 150,000 works signed by more than 1,500 artists who have left their mark on the country's visual history.
The museum offers a rich and diverse exhibition program, with thematic exhibitions that trace over a century of graphic art, from the early 20th century to the present day. Among the recent exhibitions stands out "Madrid en su tinta," dedicated to the illustrator José Robledano and aimed at telling the city's history through its graphic representation.
Spread over multiple floors, the museum also houses a cafeteria, a consultable archive, educational workshops, and author meetings. The entrance is free, and the atmosphere is welcoming: ideal for illustration enthusiasts, students, families, and curious visitors looking for a vibrant and contemporary visual culture.
