Museu del Joguet

The museum displays an extensive collection of toys manufactured in Dénia from 1904 to the 1960s, featuring wooden and metal toys including cars, boats, trains, and traditional games housed in the former train station building.

The museum chronicles Dénia's toy industry that began in 1904 with lithographed tin toys imported from Germany, later evolving into wooden toy production that reached its golden age during the 1950s and 1960s.

The collection reflects the social and cultural evolution of childhood entertainment in early 20th century Spain, showcasing how toys served as educational tools and represented societal values through miniature representations of daily life.

The museum operates daily from 10:00 to 13:00 and 17:00 to 21:00 with free admission, located at Calle Calderón 2 in central Dénia, offering wheelchair accessibility and elevator access to the first floor exhibition space.

The museum occupies the original Dénia-Carcaixent railway station building, creating a distinctive connection between transportation history and toy manufacturing heritage while preserving functional vintage toy mechanisms that visitors can still operate today.
