A walk through the museum
Nowadays our public can see two different spaces: the rooms dedicated to the Marquis of Vega-Inclan, paying him tribute and honoring his vision, now overcome, about El Greco's life; and the rooms dedicated to the Cretan painter, where his life, works, and ultimate influence in the Toledo of the beginning of the 17th century are exhibited. We present you with a short video (in Spanish) showing this new vision of the museum after the renovation of 2011.

Documentary video showing how El Greco created the Apostolate, analizing the different layers and how each canvas was made.
Why El Greco painted like that

Completa tu visita
Aunque el museo trata de presentar al visitante la figura y personalidad del Greco, sus colecciones se centran únicamente en el último periodo de su actividad artística, entre 1600 y 1614. La vocación investigadora de la institución y la labor de difusión que por definición ha de llevar a cabo, nos lleva a invitar al visitante a completar su visita y conocer algo más de la vida y obra de Doménico Theotocópuli, El Greco (Candia, Creta 1541-Toledo 1614). Por ello proponemos continuar el paseo por otras instituciones y centros museísticos, tanto nacionales como internacionales, y conocer algo más sobre una de las figuras más determinantes en el panorama artístico español del siglo XVI.
