Museo Regional Casa de Alfeñique

The Museo Regional Casa de Alfeñique occupies a Baroque residence whose ornament evokes the confection known as alfeñique. Its collection includes furniture and objects associated with the life of an aristocratic Puebla family in the late nineteenth century. The exhibition design creates a route through the arts of the period and integrates Talavera, gastronomy, dress and audiovisual resources.
