International Bagpipe Museum, Musical instrument museum in Gijón, Spain.
The International Bagpipe Museum displays a large collection of bagpipes from various regions across Spain, Europe, Africa, and Asia in four exhibition rooms.
Founded in 1965, the museum relocated to its current location at the Museum of the Asturian People in 1975, occupying a traditional building from 1757.
The museum maintains an Archive of Traditional Asturian Music, gathering recordings of regional dances and songs through different audio formats and media.
Located at Paseo del Doctor Fleming 877, the museum opens Tuesday through Friday from 9:30 AM to 6:30 PM in winter and 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM in summer.
The museum features four specialized rooms, including one dedicated to Asturian bagpipes and another containing mechanical instruments from the 19th century.
