Casa natal de Goya

Casa natal de Goya is a two-story rural house in a small village in Aragon that served as the painter's birthplace. The ground floor includes the entrance, a stable, and kitchen facilities, while the upper level holds living quarters and sleeping areas.

The building remained largely forgotten until the early 1900s, when painter Ignacio Zuloaga identified and acquired it. It suffered damage during the Spanish Civil War but underwent careful restoration in 1946 to preserve its historical state.

The rooms display household items and furnishings that reveal the rural, agricultural way of life in mid-18th century Aragon. Walking through each space shows how modest living arrangements reflected the economic realities of the village at that time.

Plan your visit for weekday mornings when the site is less crowded and you can move through the rooms at a comfortable pace. The building is modest in size, so a couple of hours allows you to view all the spaces and read the informational panels without feeling rushed.

A plaque on the facade records the exact date of the painter's birth, marking this simple dwelling as the starting point of one of art's most influential careers. Many visitors overlook this modest inscription until they are standing directly in front of the building.
