The National Museum of Sculpture is one of the most important European museums on this discipline because of the quality of its collection, ranging from the Middle Ages to the Baroque, with a predominance of polychrome wood works: Alonso Berruguete, Juan de Juni, Gregorio Fernández, Mena, Martínez Montañés, Alonso Cano, etc. The 19th century, is represented by the plaster cast collection coming from the old National Museum of Artistic Reproductions. The historic value of the four buildings which make up the museum along the street reinforces the worthy character of the visit. The main building, Saint Gregory´s College, is one of the most singular examples of the architecture in the 15th century, next to the Palace of the Marquis de Villena, the House of the Sun and the church of St. Benedict the Elder.
No more no less. Also the magnificent building with a delicious façade and two amzing patios. If you are interested in "semana santa" you would discoversome of the famous "pasos" of our city.

For a minimal cost you have both a history of the author and Spanish home life. Somewhat formal self guided tour (staff are very watchful and suspicious of any movement close to any object) but very interesting and well worth an hour of your time
