Museo Nacional de Escultura

The National Museum of Sculpture is one of the most important European museums on this discipline because of the quality of its collection, ranging from the Middle Ages to the Baroque, with a predominance of polychrome wood works: Alonso Berruguete, Juan de Juni, Gregorio Fernández, Mena, Martínez Montañés, Alonso Cano, etc. The 19th century, is represented by the plaster cast collection coming from the old National Museum of Artistic Reproductions. The historic value of the four buildings which make up the museum along the street reinforces the worthy character of the visit. The main building, Saint Gregory´s College, is one of the most singular examples of the architecture in the 15th century, next to the Palace of the Marquis de Villena, the House of the Sun and the church of St. Benedict the Elder.

Just as in many cities, this is the lung of Valladolid, it is more like a little forest than a garden, were you can spent time watching the ducks, swans and peacocks or just walking through the shadows of the trees.

Church is sit back from the road a bit, with stones forming the plaza in front of the church side. I really enjoyed looking at the church on a blue sky day. Neat green door too! Behind the large cathedral, about 750 feet
