Museo de Miniaturas Profesor Max
About This Museum
You won't believe what I'm looking at: a bullfighting scene painted on a single human hair, visible only through a giant microscope. This place, the Museo de Miniaturas Profesor Max, is an absolute treasure chest of the impossibly small, tucked away in the charming town of Brihuega. It’s the life's work of Professor Max, who dedicated himself to creating these microscopic marvels. Every display case holds something that will make you gasp and lean in closer, questioning how such detail is even possible.
Collection Highlights
Look for the Lord's Prayer inscribed on a grain of rice and a tiny chess set perfectly carved on the head of a pin. The collection is full of these whimsical, mind-bending pieces that blend art with sheer technical wizardry.
Visitor Information
It's located inside the Convento San José in Brihuega's main square—a perfect stop if you're exploring this part of Guadalajara. Don't forget to use the microscopes provided; they're essential for seeing the true magic!
Architecture & Building
The museum is housed in the historic Convento San José, so you get to walk through old, beautiful stone cloisters and vaulted halls that give the whole experience a wonderfully serene and ancient feel.
