Dalí transformed Figueres's former municipal theatre into a museum that opened on 28 September 1974. He shaped both the building and the placement of its works. The museum under construction
The collection brings paintings and drawings together with sculpture, prints, jewellery and installations. A room, a courtyard and a painted ceiling can each be part of the work you are looking at.
Its collection strengths include Surrealist paintings and drawings by Salvador Dalí, room-scale installations designed by Salvador Dalí, and jewellery, sculpture, and graphic work.

Dalí placed the Cadillac in the museum courtyard a month after the 1974 opening. The larger courtyard installation was completed with Gala's boat in 1984.
Dalí painted this ceiling for the former theatre's rest room. The work consists of five panels and is catalogued as P 859.
