Tapestry Parish Museum of Pastrana
Pastrana, Spain

To the right of the main altarpiece, one finds the entrance to the parish museum of Pastrana which consists of the tapestry room, room 2 and the chapter house. The strong influence of some of the people who lived in Pastrana during the Renaissance and the Baroque made it possible, through donations and sponsorship, that the collegiate church treasures an endless number of liturgical utensils, paintings and sculptures that are true gems. Of all of the above, it is the tapestries from the Alfonso V of Portugal collection that justly enjoy international fame. The tapestries of Pastrana count as one of the most representative treasures of the art of Flemish-Gothic, medieval tapestry of the 15th century.
