Bonfire Museum, Art museum in central Alicante, Spain.

The Bonfire Museum displays preserved figures, traditional costumes, and historical documents related to the San Juan Festival of Alicante.

Established in 1998, this museum preserves the cultural legacy of the Hogueras de San Juan Festival, a tradition dating back to the 1920s.

The museum presents numerous ninots, large-scale satirical sculptures that reflect social commentary and artistic expression within the festival traditions.

Located at Teniente Álvarez Soto corner with Rambla Méndez Núñez, the museum opens Tuesday through Saturday with different summer and winter schedules.

Each year, one winning statue from the festival escapes the traditional burning ritual and joins the permanent collection of the museum.
