Casa de los Tiros, History museum in Realejo quarter, Granada, Spain
The Casa de los Tiros features a 16th-century fortress facade with five stone sculptures representing mythological heroes, including Hercules and Mercury on its balconies.
The fortress belonged to Gil Vazquez de Rengifo, a knight who participated in Granada's conquest, before becoming state property and transforming into a museum in 1921.
The museum exhibits documents, drawings, engravings, photographs, and posters that detail Granada's evolution from the 16th century through present times across twelve rooms.
The museum operates Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 to 20:30, Sundays from 10:00 to 17:00, with free entry for European Union citizens and 1.50 euros for others.
The Cuadra Dorada room contains a wooden ceiling decorated with Spanish hero figures, royal busts, and inscriptions describing their achievements in detailed relief work.
