Monument · Cartagena, Campo de Cartagena, Murcia

MURAM (Museo Regional de Arte Moderno, the Regional Museum of Modern Art) is a museum of 19th- and 20th-century art in Cartagena (Murcia), opened on 29 April 2009 next to the Aguirre Palace, with works by artists such as Rodin, Dalí, Tàpies and Chillida. It occupies a Modernist-style building restored by the architect Martín Lejárraga, on the Plaza de la Merced. It opened with a temporary exhibition devoted to the sculptor Auguste Rodin and today houses only temporary shows, awaiting an extension that will house the Marifí Plazas collection of Spanish avant-garde art. Admission is free and it opens Tuesday to Saturday, and Sunday mornings.
