Overview
The Museo Fallero preserves one 'ninot indultat' (pardoned figure) from each year's Fallas festival—the single figure voted by the public to be saved from the flames. It's a whimsical timeline of the festival's artistry.
Highlights
- Pardoned ninots: Over 100 figures saved from burning, dating from the 1930s.
- Festival history: Photographs and posters documenting the Fallas tradition.
- Artistry evolution: See how figure-making has evolved from simple papier-mâché to giant polystyrene sculptures.
History
The museum opened in 1971 to preserve the ninots indultats. Each March's pardoned figure joins the permanent collection.
