Fodor's Review:

Built in the 1920s for King Alfonso XII, this palace houses the Museu de Ceràmica, covering Spanish ceramic art from its Moorish beginnings up through medieval work from Manises and Paterna to Talavera de la Reina and Puente del Arzobispo. Catalan tile work, porcelain from Alcora, and Picasso and Miró creations complete the exhibit. The Museu de les Arts Decoratives exhibits household and design objects from medieval times through the Industrial Revolution and Spanish civil war up to contemporary design.
