Fodor's Expert Review Museo Taurino
Cordoba
Specialty Museum
Two adjoining mansions on the Plaza de Maimónides (or Plaza de las Bulas) house this museum and it's worth a visit, as much for the chance to see a restored mansion as for the posters, Art Nouveau paintings, bulls' heads, suits of lights (bullfighting 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.
