Museo Fallero
Museu Faller de València
Houses the figures that have been 'pardoned' by public vote and spared from burning during the Fallas festival every year since 1934. It offers a complete overview of the evolution of Fallas art.
During the Fallas festival, every Fallas sculpture is burned on the night of March 19, except for one figure chosen by public vote, the ninot indultat, which is 'pardoned' and preserved. These works are kept in the Fallas Museum. The museum displays nearly a hundred years of pardoned figures in chronological order, in styles ranging from traditional realism to satirical caricature, along with posters and festival photographs from past years. Entry costs about 2 euros. It is closed on Mondays. It is near the Turia Gardens, about a 10-minute walk from the City of Arts and Sciences.
