Opening Times: Cordoba Information

The Archeological Museum(*) is situated in a renaissance palace, over the ruins of the Roman Theatre, and features prehistoric, Iberian, Roman, Visigoth, Moslem and renaissance artifacts.

The Julio Romero de Torres Museum(*) is dedicated exclusively to Cordoba's most emblematic painter, who captured the beauty of Cordoba's women in his portraits. Across the courtyard is the Fine Arts Museum (Museo de Bellas Artes), situated in a 16th century hospital and exhibiting a collection of paintings and sculptures, including some by Goya, Zurbarán, Murillo, and Sorolla. Both museums are located in the well-known Plaza del Potro.

Viana Palace(*), former residence of the Marquise of Viana, is an impressive museum featuring furniture, tapestries, porcelain, tiles, paintings, leatherwork, muskets, a 7000-volume library and extensive gardens spread out over 14 patios.
