Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares (Museum of Arts and Traditions) Review

The Mudejar pavilion opposite the Museum of Archaeology is the site of this museum of mainly 19th- and 20th-century Spanish folklore. The first floor is home to an impressive Díaz Velázquez collection of lace and embroidery—one of the finest in Europe—and there's a reconstruction of a typical late-19th-century Sevillian house. Upstairs, exhibits include 18th- and 19th-century court dress, stunning regional folk costumes, religious objects, and musical instruments. In the basement, you can see ceramics, pottery, furniture, and household items from bygone ages.
