The Zorrilla House in Valladolid, located in the autonomous community of Castilla y León in Spain, is a significant cultural site. This property is where the renowned romantic poet, José Zorrilla, was born on February 21, 1817. It offers a unique opportunity to explore the birthplace of one of Spain's most celebrated poets.

Architecture and Original Furnishings of the Zorrilla House

The Zorrilla House is of simple design and structure, consisting of two floors, a basement, and a garden. Visitors can see some of the poet's original furniture, such as his desk, which were donated by his widow. These preserved items provide a tangible connection to the poet's life and work.

Zorrilla's Personal Items and the Funerary Mask

Among the personal items of Zorrilla preserved in the house, the funerary mask made from his face by the sculptor Aurelio Rodríguez-Vicente Carretero is particularly notable. This mask was used in the creation of the monument to the poet located in the Plaza de Zorrilla in Valladolid, providing a unique insight into the process of creating public monuments.
