If you're in any way attracted to the exciting, complicated and colourful world of bullfighting, you'll love this museum, located in the world's most important bullring—Plaza Monumental de las Ventas. It contains a fabulous collection of trajes de luces (bullfighting suits) worn by the most famous bullfighters along with portraits of great toreros, like Belmonte and Vicente Pastor painted by Eugenio Lucas and Antonio Carnicero. You'll also see an eclectic selection of taurine memorabilia and the stuffed heads of brave bulls. Admission is free.
