The Museo de Arte Abstracto Español in Cuenca exhibits a permanent collection of 129 paintings and sculptures by Spanish artists of the Abstract Generation of the 1950s and 60s (Millares, Tàpies, Sempere, Torner, Rueda, Zóbel, Saura, among some thirty other artists), as well as other artists from the 1980s and 90s.In 1980, the founder of the Museum, Fernando Zóbel, donated its collection to the Fundación Juan March, which then incorporated it into its own collection. Situated in the Casas Colgadas (Hanging Houses) of the city of Cuenca, in a late-fifteenth-century medieval building, property of the city, the Museum has undergone various renovations and, in 1994, inaugurated its galleries for temporary exhibitions.
This is one of the best modern art galleries we have visited. The collection is not large but each piece shouts quality. It is very well laid out with plenty of space for each exhibit, and many very interesting pieces. The collection is housed in one of the hanging houses in the old town of Cuenca, which adds to its interest. There was no entry charge, but we would willingly have paid. It was such a treat.

The Museum occupies the first three floors of the Episcopal Palace.Consists of 10 rooms that are displayed more than 200 pieces of great value and uniqueness. Include two paintings by famed Cretan artist El Greco, the valuable collection of jewelry in silver. Special mention to the collection of Flemish tapestries and Renaissance tables. We also have some special activities for children.
This museum has three floors of valuable exhibits and they belong to different churches in the Cuenca Region. Each floor shows the expression of Christian faith over time starting from 16th-18th Century. I liked the treasure chamber as you can see different gold and silver work pieces. The tapestry display on the main floor was also very impressive.
