Abstract
This chapter aims to know the experience of the public in the use of virtual visits to museums. For that, the authors developed a survey and gave it, through social media, between December 22, 2020 and January 5, 2021. Ninety-one valid responses were obtained. The results indicate that although most respondents say that they are aware of the possibility of carrying out virtual visits to museums, very few carry out this type of visit. One of the advantages most mentioned by respondents was the fact that it is not necessary to leave the house for the visit.
