    Rúa da Troia, 5 15782 Santiago de Compostela A Coruña, Spain This house museum is located on Rua da Troia in Santiago de Compostela, very close to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, on the side of the Plaza de Azabacheria. This house is a Historical museum, it is beautiful and apart from that the Guide is very friendly and in her explanations about the history and experiences in this house she makes you transport yourself to those years that its tenants lived in, who were students who came to Santiago to Study and earn money. their titles. Every room you visit in this House Museum is wonderful, apart from this house being shown in cinemas since it was very famous in its years and today it is still very famous. I recommend it, since it is a historical part of Santiago de Compostela and its staff is excellent.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful architecture. It is a typical construction of the old part of the city, whose building dates from the mid-18th century and decorated to the taste of that time. It consists of three floors and a small attic that completes the house. The entrance is formed by a hallway or passage area and from this place, the house is divided into two well differentiated areas: the house itself and the stables. (Original) Preciosa arquitectura. Es una típica construcción del casco antiguo de la ciudad, cuya edificación data de mediados del s.XVIII y decorada al gusto de aquella época. Consta de tres plantas y un pequeño ático que remata la casa. La entrada está formada por un zaguán o zona de paso y desde este lugar, la casa se divide en dos zonas bien diferenciadas: la vivienda propiamente dicha y las caballerizas.

    We are from Santiago and we had not visited La casa de la Troya until today...unforgivable, especially when we saw in person everything we were missing!! It is very careful in details, in documents, in the history of that time and all of this explained perfectly by our guide Carmen. Thank you very much, Carmen, for transmitting to us with your special enthusiasm indelible moments of an important time in our city.

    Veramente una visita interessante e una guida fantastica e molto preparata 👍🏻 il nome della casa può essere per noi italiani oggetto di fraintendimenti 😅 ma invece si tratta di un ottima occasione per scoprire l'autore del libro e un perfetto spaccato della vita degli studenti di Santiago all'epoca , visita raccomandata ❤️

    Museo súper interesante y diferente por el que todo el mundo debería pasar si está por Santiago. La visita es guiada y la chica que guía además de ser majísima, explica súper bien!

  • 5/5 michel g. 7 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Super interesting visit that is about a book based on real events that tells the experiences of this building that was a student residence. Despite not having read the book, I found it super enjoyable, pleasant treatment from the guide who always asked you questions at all times about what we saw to keep you hooked, the building is super well maintained Very affordable price €1.50 for students and pilgrims and €2.50 for the standard rate. We encourage you to visit it!!
