I've never visited before a museum dedicated to fashion and this one was interesting. The building where it is located it is very impressive, the kind of place the would host contemporary art exhibitions. The museum contains a whole collection of designs of Cristobal Balenciaga, who was born in Guetaria. It takes you through a biographic journey of Balenciaga's life... More

So, we were pleasantly surprised when our tripadvisor app came up with this! couldn't believe our luck when we walked into this modern building (attached to an old house) in this busy little town. the dresses...
