The Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum in Madrid is a purpose-built national art museum housing a wide private collection spanning early Italian primitives to 20th-century European and American painting. It sits beside the Prado as part of Madrid's main museum axis and opened in 1992 to display the Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza's collection.

As it stood in 1993
What Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum looked like in its prime.
A three-storey classical town-palace façade of warm red brick framed by pale stone quoins and pilasters; tall rectangular windows with small wrought-iron balconettes align symmetrically across the elevation. A triangular stone pediment with a carved coat of arms and crowned sculpture tops the center. Ground floor features three stone-arched entrance doors set into a paved forecourt with planted palms, colourful vertical banners and low benches; a modern glazed canopy and terrace adjoins the right flank.
