Museum for the Blind

The Museum for the Blind (inaugurated in 1992) is a cultural space devoted to the exhibition of artistic works and typhlological material (tools, gadgets, and specific aids for blind and visually-impaired people, models, etc.), which can be felt through the sense of touch.

Today the Museum has four rooms displaying the following: models of monuments and national and international buildings of the Human Heritage; paintings, sculptures, and textile art made by blind and visually- impaired artists; material and documents on the history of blind people, temporary exhibitions of many topics related to blindness, and art exhibitions of Spanish and foreign artists.

In addition to arranging guided tours, the museum offers workshops for families, schools, and the general public, teaching them Braille and giving them insight into the world of visual impairments.
