Toy Museum Costa Brava

The Toy Museum located on Rambla de Figueres, Figueres, is just over an hour from Barcelona and is a great place of interest for children and adults alike. The museum originally opened in 1982 in the former Hotel Paris and eventually was refurbished and re-opened again in December 1998. The Museum displays over 4000 toys from the worlds' most prestigious toymakers and also features some toys of Spanish Icons such as Salvador Dali and Anna Maria. Toys on display range from puppets, mini theatres, teddy bears and Meccano constructions to bicycles. The museum provides the history of toys and how technological advances have influenced the toys on sale today.
