Padre Moreno Museum

Monument · Moixent/Mogente, La Costera, Valencia

Image of Moixent/Mogente, not of the place itself.

Museum of Moixent housed in the chapel of a former 16th-century Franciscan convent dedicated to San Antonio de Padua, founded by the Moixent-born friar Padre Moreno (1520-1603), who brought to the convent relics of martyrs from the early times of Christianity; these relics were moved in 1835 to the church of San Pedro Apóstol. Since 2007 the chapel has operated as the Museo Padre Moreno and houses pieces linked to the former convent.
