Although Betancuria is the least populated municipality of Canarias, it offers visitors some monuments of great value. Among these monuments is the Museum of Sacred Art of Betancuria, its rooms house an extensive collection of paintings, sculptures, priestly garments and a wide variety of goldsmith's pieces that represent in a very interesting way the sacred art on the island.

Even though the Museum of Sacred Art of Betancuria is small, it houses pieces of worship that belonged to the parish since its foundation back in the 15th century.

Walking around the Betancuria area you will arrive at the museum through the Mayor Carmelo Silvena street. The building is perfectly seen since it was an old house, which stands out for the tiles of its external roof and wood inwards. Another of the elements that draw attention when you see the facade, is the balcony located on the main door of the enclosure and thanks to a staircase gives access to the interior from the street. Also striking is the dark-colored stonework that is in the corners of the exterior walls.

Before becoming the Museum of Sacred Art, the building was the residence of ecclesiastical beneficiaries, as well as religious authorities of the local parish. The pieces exhibited in the museum come from hermitages and churches throughout the island of Fuerteventura.

The surroundings of the Museum of Sacred Art is also a very interesting place, garden areas, a pleasant walk to the access and a nearby park are some of the elements that visitors will find before accessing the building. An ideal place to deepen part of the artistic work offered by the island of Fuerteventura.
