Monument · Puerto Lumbreras, Alto Guadalentín, Murcia

The Casa Museo de las Cofradías is located on Calle Francisco Tirado in Puerto Lumbreras, near the parish church of Nuestra Señora del Rosario. Opened in 2012 in a building of almost 1,200 square metres, it displays thrones and images from the Holy Week of Puerto Lumbreras, old objects, costumes, banners and the announcement posters of the last twenty years. In the basement is the Cofradía del Cristo de la Fe y María Santísima de la Piedad, and on the first floor the collections of the confraternities of Nuestro Padre Jesús and the Virgen de los Dolores, whose headquarters the building also houses. Its most moving moments are the Silencio procession on Holy Thursday, the Encuentro de Saetas on Good Friday and the one on Easter Sunday, with the images carried by women.
