Museo del Corpus
The Museo del Corpus in Valencia offers a fascinating journey into one of the city’s most emblematic traditions: the Corpus Christi festival. Located in the historic Casa de las Rocas, the museum preserves the ceremonial heritage that has shaped Valencia’s religious and civic identity for centuries. Its collection includes the impressive rocas, large ceremonial carts used in processions, along with giants, big‑headed figures, costumes, and symbolic objects that bring the festival’s theatrical spirit to life. Walking through its halls reveals how craftsmanship, devotion, and popular culture intertwine in this unique celebration. The museum not only safeguards these historic pieces but also explains their meaning and evolution, helping visitors understand the deep roots of a tradition that continues to animate Valencia’s streets each year. It is an essential stop for anyone interested in the city’s festive heritage and the artistry behind its most iconic procession.
