The museum features a private collection of more than 3,000 pieces of glass of different epochs, accompanied by pictures, furniture, and decorative objects in a setting that corresponds to each historical period represented, immersing us in an environment close to the domestic context of the era.
It is a museum of decorative arts that aims not only to contribute to the rehabilitation of the old craftsman's neighborhood of San Felipe Neri, but also to be a reference centre for artisans' techniques of the past, many of them lost, unknown or forgotten. (

The Museum of Glass and Crystal is an absolutely splendid museum and is definitively worth the visit. We were lucky to have an English guided tour with the owner of the collection himself.
