Museo Diocesano de Arte Sacro de Álava, Religious art museum in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain.

The Diocesan Museum of Sacred Art displays religious paintings, sculptures, and liturgical objects within the New Cathedral of Vitoria-Gasteiz.

The museum's collection began in the early 20th century at the Episcopal Palace before finding its permanent location in 1999 within the Neo-Gothic cathedral.

The exhibition space presents five chronological sections organized by materials: Stone, Wood, Panel, Canvas, and Silver, representing regional ecclesiastical heritage.

The museum welcomes visitors Tuesday through Friday from 10:00 to 14:00 and 16:00 to 18:30, Saturdays from 10:00 to 14:00, and Sundays from 11:00 to 14:00.

The museum galleries occupy the ambulatory chapels of an active cathedral, where Maumejean stained glass windows illuminate the religious artifacts.
