Escuela Museo de Origami Zaragoza (EMOZ) — Attraction in Zaragoza

I visited this museum for the first time in 2017 and have remembered it fondly ever since. This weekend I had the opportunity to visit Zaragoza again, and the first thing I said was "we have to visit the origami museum!"

It is only €3 to enter the museum (€2 for concessions). The first room discusses the history of paper folding, with English translations for the most important placards in the museum. Meanwhile, the remainder of the space hosts exhibitions, which change around every 3 months. It is amazing to see some of the incredible sculptures the artists are able to create with only paper!
