The ceramics museum, Museo Nacional de Ceramica y Artes Suntuarias Gonzalez Marti recently re-opened after having been closed for many years, and it is one of the most famous in the city. Built at the end of the 15th century, it was totally reformed in 1740 by its owner, the Marquis de Dos Aguas, in a baroque style with a notable rococo door fashioned in marble. The permanent collection includes ceramic works of art, spanning every era. Particularly outstanding are the famous Arab and the later Christian ceramics from Manises, a small town located on the outskirts of Valencia. Check the website for more details.
This recently renovated museum can be found in a historical-artistic enclave between the Torres de Serranos and the IVAM Museum. This museum, however, was the family home of the Benlliures. Jose Peppino and Mariano Benlliure produced most of the existing works you'll find on exhibit here: paintings, ceramics, sculptures and drawings. Apart from these works, there is also a quality collection of pieces by Sorolla, Munoz, Degrain, Rusinol and other Valencian artists. The museum also has a wonderfully romantic garden: a cool oasis in hot Valencian summers (though it was once Peppino Benlliure's studio).
This magnificent museum is located in the Royal Seminary College of Corpus Christi. It was founded in 1583 by Saint Juan de Ribera, who put together an excellent collection of paintings. You'll find works by Juan de Juanes, Pedro de Campana, Fernando Yanez de la Almedina, El Greco (The worship of the Shepherds and The Meditation of Saint Francis and Friar Leon, Mariano Benlliure and Francisco Ribalta, among others. The atmosphere in the museum and the quality of the paintings make it one of the city's most charming.
