The architectural proposal of Tuñón y Mansilla is based on the concept of growth by repetition, which results in a series of modular pieces that make up a total area of 3,400 m². Although the different sections of the building can be clearly seen from the outside, inside, the use of white concrete and large open spaces give a homogeneous feeling to the unit.

Its façade is made up of more than 3,000 colored glasses that are inspired by the stained glass window of “El Halconero” from the 13th century, located in the Cathedral of León. This characteristic gives the building a unique and vibrant identity that has become a symbol of the city and a point of reference in contemporary architecture.

During these 18 years, MUSAC has been home to a wide range of exhibitions and cultural events, promoting local and international artists and fostering creativity and dialogue in the community. The combination of avant-garde architectural design and an innovative curatorial approach has led MUSAC to be recognized not only in Spain, but also worldwide.
