Additional Information

The Tomàs Mallol Cinema-Collection Museum is a standing, charitable organization, accessible to public as a hub for academic, cultural and leisure activities, dedicated to the welfare of society and its growth.

It was established following the purchase of Tomás Mallol’s collection of cinema and pre-cinema artifacts by the City of Girona on January 28, 1994.

The museum serves to facilitate the understanding and learning of the history of moving images and cinema by preserving, conducting research, interpreting and displaying various collections. These collections contain items that reflect the manner in which images were portrayed prior to the advent of cinema and outline the technological progression that paved the way to the creation of the cinematograph in 1895.

CAKE CHERRY - I love cinema and had never seen a collection like this. I didn't choose to visit Girona for the museum that became the icing on the cake of the city tour.

Definitely worth a visit. - Just before leaving Girona after our overnight stay we thought of visiting the museum having seen it mentioned and signposted . Four floors of artefacts and the pioneers from the first of moving animation then beginning of motion picture to the movies as we now know it. Spent an hour anyway but could easily have spent a lot longer as found it really interesting especially with all the articles , pieces and equipment on display plus the informative video clips. Really worth a visit. Mobility issues should be no problem as lifts available to all levels. Introduction video is on first level then lift takes you to 4th then descend each floor of the museum through the years of cinematography.

Exquisite, informative and fun film museum - I absolutely loved this museum. Very clearly laid out. Lots to see and do. Had great fun playing with the digitised magic lantern images. Lots of short films to see. Friendly staff, and a really interesting exhibition on the spectator.
