National Cultural Museum (Museo Nacional de Escultura)
This small museum is a
treasure trove for those interested in religious history, as it
documents the region's religious heritage, in particular preserving the
art works rescued from monasteries destroyed over the centuries, as well
as other related materials, often by some of Spain's most famous
painters.
