Figueres is probably the most attractive of the Costa Brava towns for lover of history and art. The town is located about 45min from Girona, where it is home to the most important Dali museum in Spain, the marvelous Teatro Museo Dali, housed in the town’s former theater. This surrealist wonderland takes you deep into the heart of Dali’s bizarre world and is not to be missed, whether or not you are an art lover. The town is also home to several other museums including the Toy Museum, Museu De L’Emporda (art museum) and the Technology Museum. Round off your day with a visit to the house where Dali was born and the ancient old Castle of Sant Ferran, one of the largest of its kind in Europe.
