Museum of San Gil

Atienza's first museum, in a former Romanesque church on Calle Real.

The story

Located on Calle Real, near the Plaza de San Gil, it was the first museum opened in Atienza, in 1986. It occupies a former Romanesque church of which the apse survives; the rest of the temple is 16th-century.

It gathers sacred art from the former churches of Atienza. It currently remains closed for the restoration of its collection.
