The Dali Museum is a cultural and educational institution dedicated to increasing knowledge and awareness of Salvador Dali's work and his spirit of discovery and intellectual adventure.

The new Dalí Museum opened in January 2011. The museum's exterior is itself a work of art, featuring more than 900 triangular-shaped glass panels. This geodesic glass structure – nicknamed the "Glass Enigma" – is the only structure of its kind in North America and is a 21st century expression of Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome as utilized in Dalí's Teatro Museo in Figueres, Spain. No two glass panels are identical, providing a truly unique view of St. Petersburg's picturesque waterfront. The Helical Staircase – a spiral that ascends to the third floor galleries – is the main architectural focus of the interior. An energetic form created with mathematical precision and resembling a strand of DNA, Dalí recognized the helix as evidence of the divine in nature.
