Casa Museo de Jose Segrelles

Located in a narrow street that overlooks Pintor Segrelles Square, in the surroundings of the palace and the archpriest church. The house was designed and built by the painter in 1943. The decoration within the house, with its Arabic motives, was created by the painter and remains the same as it was when the painter inhabited the house. The house reveals to the visitor the way of life and the character of the painter José Segrelles (1885-1969). We are drawn into his universe: how did he paint? What did he do in his daily life? What did he read? What music did he listen to? There are more than 150 of the painter’s original work in the house, including illustrations for novels written by Vicente Blasco Ibañez, for the tales of the Arabian Nights, for Don Quixote, and his posthumous work, “El Pentecostés”. The library, containing some 11,000 works, is also of extraordinary interest.
