The Salvador Dalí House-Museum is a special house in Portlligat, Catalonia, Spain. This is where the famous artist Salvador Dalí lived and created his art for many years, from 1930 to 1982. After his wife, Gala Dalí, passed away, he moved to Púbol Castle. Today, his former home is a museum where you can explore his unique world.
History of Dalí's Home
This house was not always one big building. It started as several small huts where fishermen used to live. Over time, Dalí bought these huts one by one. He then connected them to create his very own home and studio.
The house has a very interesting design, almost like a maze. If you start in the "Bear Lobby," you'll find yourself moving through different areas. These areas are connected by narrow hallways and small changes in floor level. It's like an adventure to explore!
Every room in the house has windows. These windows come in all shapes and sizes. But they all show the same amazing view: the bay of Portlligat. This beautiful landscape was a big inspiration for Dalí's paintings. You can see parts of this view in many of his famous artworks.
