View of the courtyard of the Palacios Maestrales, which houses the Museo Nacional de Teatro, in Almagro, Spain.

Thespian or not, you could spend hours in Almagro’s illustrious museum just sifting through the highlights. Theatrical musings include a deftly sculpted model of Mérida’s Roman theater, costumes and props relating to zarzuela (Spanish mix of theater, music and dance) and – anchoring it all – a handsome 13th-century courtyard.
