THE TEMPTATION OF SAINT TOMÁS DE VELÁZQUEZ

This location features a remarkable Sacred Art Museum with exquisite paintings, sculptures, and textiles, highlighted by a masterpiece from a renowned artist.
The impressive Museum of Sacred Art of the Diocese of Orihuela-Alicante houses an exceptional collection of painting, sculpture, textiles and goldsmithing, as well as allowing us to tour the most outstanding rooms of the old Episcopal Palace. However, its most precious jewel is a magnificent work by the brilliant and incomparable Diego de Velázquez, a legacy of which Orihuela and its Diocese can feel deeply proud.
