Welcome Tour: Treasures of Toledo Cathedral (in English)
A short tour in English (30-40 min) introduces the newly opened exhibition “Dives Toletana. Treasures of Toledo Cathedral from the Middle Ages to El Greco.”.
For the first time in Estonia, visitors can see original works by El Greco and rare art treasures from Toledo Cathedral – one of Spain’s most important places of worship. Toledo Cathedral is opening its extraordinary treasure chamber, revealing a thousand years of art and devotion, from the Visigoths to the Spanish Golden Age. Its walls preserve layers of living heritage: the spiritual depth of the Visigoths, the refined geometry of Islamic art, the luminous heights of Gothic architecture, and the humanist renewal of the Renaissance.
Welcome Tour is a series of curator-led tours in English at the Old Town branches of the Art Museum of Estonia, where museum professionals introduce Estonian cultural heritage and temporary exhibitions, ranging from medieval to contemporary art. Come and learn about Estonian art, culture and history. Everyone is welcome!
