Museo del Vidrio y Cristal, Málaga, Glass art museum in San Felipe Neri district, Málaga, Spain
The Museo del Vidrio y Cristal in Málaga is a glass and crystal art museum located in the San Felipe Neri neighborhood, housed in an 18th-century mansion. The building centers around a courtyard and displays roughly 3,000 pieces of glass and crystal along with period furniture, paintings, and decorative objects.
The building originally served as a hostel before being restored to create museum exhibition spaces. This transformation allowed the valuable collections to be displayed within a historic setting.
The collection comes from many different civilizations and time periods, from Phoenician to Venetian traditions. Visitors can observe how glassmaking techniques and designs changed over thousands of years.
All visits require a guided tour through the museum. The guided experience helps you understand the collection and its background more clearly.
Ancient pottery kilns from the 17th century were discovered beneath the building during expansion work. These archaeological finds reveal that craftspeople used this location for ceramic production long before it became a hostel.
