Museo Taurino

Fodor's Review:

Two adjoining mansions on the Plaza Maimónides (or Plaza de las Bulas) house this museum. It's worth a visit, as much for the chance to see a restored mansion as for the posters, Art Nouveau paintings, bull's heads, suits of lights (bullfighter outfits), and memorabilia of famous Córdoban bullfighters, including the most famous of all, Manolete. To the surprise of the nation, Manolete, who was considered immortal, was killed by a bull in the ring at Linares in 1947.
