Did You Know?
Humble Beginnings
Salvador Dalí's iconic home began as a small, dilapidated fisherman's hut that he purchased in 1930. Over 40 years, he and Gala expanded it into the labyrinthine structure seen today.
Symbolic Rooftop
One of the most recognizable features is the giant egg sculpture perched atop the house. For Dalí, the egg symbolized love, hope, and the origin of life, a recurring motif in his work.
Surrealist Furniture
The house features a famous sofa shaped like the luscious red lips of Hollywood actress Mae West, a piece of furniture Dalí designed, bringing his surrealist art into his living space.
Eccentric Greeter
Visitors are often greeted by a large, taxidermied bear standing upright in the entrance hall, holding a lamp and often adorned with jewelry, reflecting Dalí's playful and bizarre aesthetic.
