Museo Taurino

The Museo Taurino de Valencia, founded in 1929 as the world's first bullfighting museum, sits on a side street off the city's large bullring and documents three hundred years of the history of this tradition. The extensive permanent exhibition is based on the bequest of the collector Luis Moroder Peiró as well as a private collection belonging to the famous matador José Bayard Badila. You can follow the development of Valencian bullfighting in chronological order and admire original exhibits such as photos of past bullfights, antique advertising posters from the nineteenth century, and splendid, original matador costumes.
