Jovellanos Birthplace

Asturias

It is one of the oldest stately buildings in Gijón. Its exhibitions include mementos such as the family tree of this writer, collector and politician, as well as the cloak of the Knight of Alcántara. The house contains both original furniture and older pieces collected by Jovellanos himself. The collection also includes a complete journey through Asturian art since the 19th century. The display rooms are complemented by a selection of paintings from the Museum's art collection, representing styles that were also represented in Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos' own art collection.
