Fundación Andrés Segovia - Museo

Located in the city of Linares, the headquarters of the Andrés Segovia Foundation - Museum is in the Palacio de los Orozco which was built in the 17th century and declared a Historic-Artistic Monument in 1962. It opened to the public on 24 August, 2000 as a Museum dedicated to this famous artist.

The building contains the crypt with the tomb of Andrés Segovia (in the basement), a music room, a conference hall and a courtyard/garden on the ground floor, the library, archive and a museum with numerous articles of furniture, effects and documents belonging to the Maestro, on the first floor.

The work of this genius led to the consecration of the guitar as a top-level instrument and to its definitive inclusion in the programmes of major concert halls throughout the world.
