    I loved seeing all the objects but especially the old classrooms and the paintings made by the children. It wasn't easy to find. You have to ring the bell where the school seems to be

    (Translated by Google) It is an amazing museum. It is much larger and more complete than one would expect. It even has three replicas of classes from different periods in Spain and the largest collection of old projectors in Spain. It is a very complete exhibition with toys and articles for the care and education of children. The gentleman who does the guided tour is really attentive. He knows a lot about what he talks about. It also shows that he has experience with children. Anyway. A little treasure that most of us don't know we have in this small town. It is worth going to see it. (Original) Es un museo increíble. Es mucho más grande y completo de lo que uno esperaría. Tiene incluso tres réplicas de clases de distintas épocas de España y la ternera colección más grande de España de proyectores antiguos. Es una exposición muy completa con juguetes y artículos para el cuidado y educación de los niños. El señor que hace la visita guiada es realmente atento. Sabe mucho de lo que habla. Además se nota que tiene experiencia con niños. En fin. Un pequeño tesoro que la mayoría no sabemos que tenemos en esta pequeña ciudad. Merece la pena pasar a verlo.

    Una joya, este museo relata 150 años de la historia de la Enseñanza en España. Debía conocerse mejor. Reúne una sección dedicada a los juguetes antiguos con otra sobre la infancia y sus carencias, otra más sobre los medios audiovisuales .... en un entorno impecable. Al lado de un colegio, por cierto. Merece que Castilla La Mancha y Albacete lo pongan en valor con orgullo y coraje. Quien crea que estoy exagerando, que vaya a ver. Le va a encantar.

    The Pedagogical and Children's Museum in Albacete is one of those hidden treasures that you fall in love with when you visit it. Incredible free museum that traces the history of education and upbringing from the times of the Bourbon Restoration to practically the present day. Essential if you are a teacher or work with children. Great job.

    An incredible place and for me unique in Spain. I was lucky enough to meet its director who has been dedicated to this project for years, and he kindly guided me through several rooms of the museum, as did the person in charge of the reception who was friendly and cordial.

    La gente está muy simpática también hay mucho para mirar y mucho más que puede aprender. El Museo es muy interesante pero me parece mejor que o puedo caminar solo y mirar de frente cosas por qué es si no tienes mucho tiempo no puede ser aquí por qué mucho para mirar y también hay un Persona que quiere dirigir Entonces si no tiene mucho tiempo, no es muy bien. pero si quiere pasar dos tres horas, ese Museo sea perfecto. Es gratis para entrar y puede donar un Euro o 2 para ayudar el Museo.

    Me ha encantado la visita a este museo. El guía te hace una visita muy completa en explicaciones y haces un recorrido en el tiempo con objetos que han pasado por tu vida y te trae muchos recuerdos. Recomiendo mucho la visita a este museo tanto para niños como para adultos.

    (Translated by Google) The director accompanied me throughout the journey without being able to have the freedom to enjoy the museum at my ease without pressure and to be able to read the documentation and take photos calmly. When I asked if you had to pay for admission, he said that it was free but that he gave his will, to the point that he kept repeating it to me several times like when he was taking photos, or insisting that I buy something... on the other hand, although I insisted that he let me see the quiet museum, he kept giving me the tour and even scolded me if I went to a room before a room before another, and on top of that reluctantly. The actid leaves a lot to be desired, the unnecessary pressure for money, the spectacular collection. (Original) El director me acompaño durante todo el trayecto sin poder tener la libertad de poder disfrutar del museo a mis anchas sin presión y poder leer la documentación y hacer fotos tranquilamente. Cuando pregunté si había que pagar entrada dijo que era gratuito pero que diera la voluntad, hasta el punto que estuvo repetimiendomelo varias veces como cuando estaba haciendo fotos, o insistiéndome que comprara algo...por otra parte, aunque le insistí que me dejara ver el museo tranquila, el siguió haciéndome el recorrido e ,incluso,m e regañaba si iba a una sala antesa una sala antes que otra, y encima de mala gana. La actid deja mucho que desear, la presión por el dinero innecesa, la colección espectacular.

    A curious museum. I haven't seen anything like it anywhere else.

  • 5/5 Mrdaxos2 5 months ago on Google • 33 reviews
    I liked it a lot, my daughter was delighted and my wife and I were amazed by the things we saw. The material is excellent. Wonderful and magical even. To make a point, a little politicized in favor of one side more than another in an area that should be neutral but hey, that's how it goes, and as an example, a button. This is how we finished.

    A must go!!! It is living history of education through the years. Impressive👌 How is it possible that living in Albacete, with extensive visiting hours and being free, there are so many people who don't know it? We were 4 friends today, Saturday morning, and we left delighted. You will not be disappointed with your visit. Cheer up!!!!

    We had a visit from Mr. José Juan Morcillo that was simply wonderful. The tour of the Museum was magical. It took us back many years with objects that were almost forgotten.

    These institutions, which work and research on the education and training of children in the past, must be supported.

    I really enjoyed the visit to the museum! It is a wonder to tour the rooms full of memories of schools from the beginning and middle of the last century. See texts that I used as a child and toys of the time. It is very worth living this experience!

  • 5/5 Jesús Espadas N. 6 months ago on Google
    Una maravilla de Museo. Cualquier ciudad se pegaría por tener uno igual. La labor de Juan Peralta, su fundador y alma mater, es impagable. La atención que le dedican las instituciones deja mucho que desear. Necesita otra ubicación más acorde a la importancia que tiene.

    Bonito revivir la enseñanza de otro tiempo, en el mismo colegio y aulas donde hice mis estudios... Os invito a conocer en museo del niño,sito en el colegio Virgen de los Llanos, en Albacete...

    Obligatorio visitarlo si vienes a Albacete. El guía espectacularmente profesional. Se nota que tiene muchísima sabiduría y vocación.

  • 5/5 Aaron M. 1 year ago on Google
    Lugar único en Albacete, ideal para comprender como era el pasado de la España antigua.

  • 5/5 Gema Dominguez C. 1 year ago on Google
    Visita guida y gratuita. Se puede dar un donativo y está totalmente justificado darlo. La persona que lo explica es muy atenta y se ve que conoce bien todo el museo. Dedicó una hora y media para recorrerlo con nosotros y contarnoslo todo. Tiene muchísimos detalles y a todos nos hace recordar momentos vividos. Silvio es un gran anfitrión

  • 5/5 J R. 1 year ago on Google
    Me ha encantado. Es cierto que pertenezco a la docencia pero cualquiera puede disfrutar de la historia de la escuela, sobre todo si tiene más de 50 años. Además hay mucho material perteneciente a juguetes, utensilios, juguetes... de los niños

    (Translated by Google) Must visit in Albacete. A spectacular site that takes you to another era. (Original) Visita obligada en Albacete. Un sitio espectacular que te lleva a otra época.

    (Translated by Google) Spectacular is little. The tour was 2 hours and I promise it felt like 10 minutes. A wonderful treatment by all the staff, the director of the museum was the one who guided the entire visit, he explained in great detail each of the rooms we visited, a very kind person and very well documented. You are amazed at the objects you can see there. Admission is free but they deserve a good donation. Highly recommended and I will return without hesitation. (Original) Espectacular es poco. El recorrido fue de 2 horas y prometo que me parecieron 10 minutos. Un trato maravilloso por parte de todo el personal, el director del museo fue quien guió toda la visita, explicó con todo lujo de detalles cada una de las estancias que visitamos, una persona muy amable y muy bien documentada. Quedas asombrado de los objetos que puedes ver allí. La entrada es gratuita pero se merecen un buen donativo. Súper recomendable y volveré sin dudarlo.

    Spectacular. The best of Albacete. A journey not only through formal education with classrooms from the Moyano era, the republic, or the 40s; but also a memory of Gotas de Leche, the role of schools in distributing food in the post-war period; and also the elements that surrounded the children's lives: toys, clothes, strollers, high chairs...; and of course didactic elements (maps, models, books, abacuses, figures of the human body, desks, projectors...), and a long etcetera. In short, 2 plants with a lot of breadth, which can be completed with their website. Apparently it is the first year that they open in summer, and it is appreciated by those of us who visit, although indeed, especially on the upper floor, the heat is noticeable. But it's worth it. Congratulations.

    I knew the museum in its beginnings and I know the great work that its creators have been doing over the years but I had not visited it for a long time, today I went with some friends and I loved it, I had an incredible time getting to know the history of my profession and remembering the years spent as a student with the large number of objects that remind me of it. It is a great luck to be able to visit it.

  • 5/5 Dolores G. 1 month ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    The museum is interesting and also different and unique in many ways. And not only because of its content but because of the magnificent explanations of its director. It says a lot about our history because we are the result of a school. Thanks for keeping it
