Museo Cerralbo

A couple days ago, we visited this mansion/museum called Museo Cerralbo. It was built in the 1800s for a wealthy man who collected all sorts of treasures...paintings, sculptures, weapons, armour, jewelry, furniture, etc. He had collected over 50,000 objects!! From the outside it looked like a regular apartment, but on the inside it was quite a palace!
