Palacio de los Olvidados, History museum in Albaicín, Granada, Spain
The Palace of the Forgotten occupies a restored 16th-century building with Mannerist architecture, featuring Tuscan pilasters and a wrought iron balcony in Granada's historic district.
The palace's coat of arms was removed when its Jewish family converted to Christianity following the Catholic Monarchs' conquest and subsequent expulsion of Arabs.
The museum exhibits over 70 instruments from the Spanish Inquisition period alongside artifacts representing Sephardic traditions and Jewish liturgical ceremonies.
Museum tours operate daily from 10:30 AM to 8 PM, with evening flamenco performances scheduled from Monday through Sunday in the palace's dedicated performance space.
The palace's interior contains a square courtyard with white marble Corinthian columns, wide overhanging eaves, and coffered ceilings decorated with detailed rosettes.

Grenada is a city experienced like a poem. At the foot of the Sierra Nevada, it combines Muslim heritage, Catholic fervor, and Andalusian rhythm. Behind ochre facades lie shaded patios, fountains, mosaics, and carved arches that tell eight centuries of history. The Alhambra watches over the city like a stone dream, the Albaicín district unfolds its white alleys, and the gardens of Generalife recall the delicacy of Nasrid rulers. At every turn, a bell tower follows a minaret, an Arab market opens onto a baroque cathedral. Granada is as much an open-air museum as a living place, where flamenco still escapes from the Sacromonte caves. Between spirituality, art, and jasmine fragrance, the Andalusian city retains an elusive, almost mystical beauty.
