In the province of Granada there are many interesting places related to Lorca, museums and centres dedicated to his life and work.
The original furniture of the family are kept untouched, as his baby bed. It is an obliged visit for those who wish to know, not only the surrounding of his youth, but also his handwriting texts, his correspondence with his friends as Dalí or Buñuel, his and other friends’ drawings, original clothes from his theatre plays, etc.
García Lorca’s family summer house, originally situated in the fertile area of Granada and nowadays part of the largest park of the city named García Lorca. He wrote there some of his best works: ‘El diván de Tamarit’, ‘Romancero gitano’, ‘Poema del cante jondo’ and ‘Bodas de sangre’.
Actually it is a house museum with the original furniture, pictures and objects of the house, as the piano and Federico Garcia Lorca’s desk.
A large centre in Granada dedicated to the poet opened in 2007. The new institution has a Lorca studies centre and recuperates for its archive the documentation about the poet that still was in the Student Residence in Madrid. The centre is accommodated in a building of 4,000 square meters at the Plaza de la Romanilla in the city centre.
