The museum is located in an old 18th century Capuchin convent.
The Fine Art Museum is one of the main cultural focal points in Galicia. It contains over 5,000 pieces, with works from various artistic disciplines: painting, sculpture, engraving, ceramics and decorative arts. Artists such as Juan de Juanes, Murillo, Tintoretto and Rubens appear alongside Galician painters from the 19th and 20th centuries. The engravings room focuses on the outstanding figure of Goya, while there is another room that is a tribute to the ceramics of Sargadelos. There is also a temporary exhibition room.
The museum's collection is part of the collective catalogue of the Digital Network of Spanish Museum Collections (CERES), conceived as a space for dissemination which enables visitors to browse the various museum collections using the identifying features of each item (author, type of object, iconography, etc.).
