Prado Museum in Madrid
 
Will the Prado be open this May 2. It is Community Day and I read that there will be closures. Does anyone know?

The Prado is closed on Mondays.

May 2 is a Monday.

How can the Prado be open on May 2?

stupid me... was looking at the specific dates that it's closed (Dec 25, May 1, etc), i didn't consider the day of week.

If you're looking to go to a museum in Madrid on May 2 (Monday), I suggest the Reina Sofia, the major modern art museum (with Picasso's Guernica), which is opened on Mondays but closed on Tuesdays. Other major museums, including the Prado, Thyssen-Bornemisza, and the Sorolla Museum, as well as the Chapel of San Antonio de la Florida (Goya frescoes), are all closed on Mondays.
