The International Council of Museums established International Museum Day in 1977 to raise public awareness of the role of museums and promote their importance in the development of society. This year, the museums around the world, have celebrated on May the 18th the International Museum Day under the theme "Museums Uniting a Divided World."
To mark the occasion, we visited the National Museum of Romanticism, in Madrid. This Museum houses an important collection of historical and artistic objects focused on daily life and customs of the 19th century, with special attention to the aesthetic movement of Romanticism.
To learn more about the Museum of Romanticism, we were joined by curator Inés López Gómez and we also spoke to some foreing visitors that were discovering this museum.
