Museo de Bellas Artes de Álava, Art museum in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain
The Museo de Bellas Artes de Álava occupies the Augustin Zulueta Palace, displaying Spanish and Basque art collections from the 18th to 20th centuries.
The museum opened in 1942 after the Foral Deputation of Álava purchased the palace from Ricardo Augustin, who sold it following his wife Elvira Zulueta's death.
The museum exhibits works by significant Basque artists like Fernando de Amárica and Ignacio Díaz Olano, representing regional artistic developments between 1850 and 1950.
Visitors can access guided tours in multiple languages and use audio guides to learn detailed information about the exhibited artworks throughout the museum.
The building combines the original 1912 palace structure with a 1960s annex, featuring architectural elements designed by Francisco Javier de Luque and Julian Apraiz Arias.
