Iconographic Museum of Don Quixote (traducción en la literatura de Quijote, The Don Quixote Iconographic Museum)

The museum first opened in 1978 to display a collection of art pieces assembled by Eulalio Ferrer. It is alleged that Ferrer started his collection trading a pack of cigarettes for a Don Quixote figurine, while in a refugee camp during the Spanish Civil War in 1936.
