The Tomás Mallol Cinema Collection Museum is a permanent, non-profit institution, open to the public as a space for scientific, cultural and recreational participation by citizens, and at the service of society and its development.
Its origin is the acquisition of the Tomás Mallol Collection of cinematographic and pre-cinematic objects by the Girona City Council on January 28, 1994; it is located in the former headquarters of the city's water company, a late 19th-century building known as the 'Casa de les Aigües'.
It aims to become a dynamic center in the world of cinema and visual entertainment, thanks to a continuous program of activities and services that allow interaction with visitors, aimed at a very wide audience, local, national and international.
Its mission is to promote understanding and knowledge of the history of the moving image and cinema through the conservation, research, interpretation and exhibition of various collections, whose objects explain how images were represented before cinema and the technical process that led to the invention of the cinematograph in 1895.
