THE CERAMICS MUSEUM VALENCIA

THE CERAMICS MUSEUM VALENCIA


 
The Ceramics Museum of Valencia is one of the most breathtaking buildings in the city. I think that each and everyone should see this amazing piece of art even if you don’t intend to go inside.


 
 

 

The Ceramics Museum is housed in the Palacio de Marques de Dos Aguas, a luxurious palace that combines rococco, neo-classical and oriental elements with an unbelievable baroque entrance. Inside you will find the fully furnished interior of the palace and the best of ceramics that Valencia had to offer through the centuries. The fact is that Valencia has a large history in ceramics arts.



The palace dates from as far back as XV century, although it has been fully re-shaped since then. Home to a Valencian noble family - the Marquis de Dos Aguas, it was originally a Gothic building, few years later it was re-shaped to Baroque and after all there were added new elements.




The ceramic collection has from Islamic samples to exquisite modern works. The most impressive of it all is the typical Valencian kitchen made of ceramic and the porcelain room. 


 





You need around 2 hours to fully discover all the beautiful details and would really recommend the guided tour as you can learn so much about the Valencian history and the building itself.
