Lerma Baroque Festival Center

The Lerma Baroque Festival has its origins in the festivities that the Duke of Lerma, Philip III's favourite, celebrated to demonstrate Spanish greatness and impress foreign ambassadors.

The Cultural Association La Hormiga and the town of Lerma recreate every first weekend of August the Baroque Festival, as a heritage and living culture of this town.

The costumes, disguises, giants and big-heads and all the elements that participate in the Baroque Festival are kept in this Museum Center, which is managed and coordinated by the Cultural Association La Hormiga, which is also who organizes together with the Town Council all the activities of the Baroque Festival.
