Museum of the Inquisition

In the Spanish city of Toledo is a very interesting museum with a permanent exhibition “Old instruments of torture”. The exhibition is divided into 5 thematic sections and covers the history of the Inquisition from the beginning of its emergence in Spain to its decline. The museum has more than 40 different instruments of torture.

Here you can see the traditional instruments of torture used by the courts of the Middle Ages - the guillotine, garrotte, electric chair, masks of shame, loyalty belts and others. Above each object hang explanatory texts and engravings, telling about tools in action.

Visiting the museum is a fascinating journey during the Spanish Inquisition. Completely imbued with the spirit of antiquity and horror, imagining torture in action in detail.

The museum is open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 9pm. On Sunday, he works from 10am to 8pm.
