Miguel Hernández House Museum in Orihuela

The dining room and the little sitting room

They're at the front of the house and furnished like Orihuela homes of the early 20th century, with the furniture and everyday objects of the time. Here you'll also see photographs from different moments in the poet's life.

The bedrooms, the kitchen and the “sostre”

The bedrooms and the kitchen are at the back. The house has only one room upstairs: the little loft known as the “sostre”.

The courtyard

From the kitchen you go out into the courtyard, with the well, a stone water trough, the woodshed and a garden area. On the last Saturday of every month, poetry gatherings are held here.

The goat shed and the orchard

Up a few steps you reach the shed and, through a small door, the orchard, right up against the rock of the sierra. There stands the fig tree the poet sheltered under from the sun, and it was to this orchard that he dedicated the poem “Huerto-mío”.
