Museum of Military Miniatures

Jaca, Spain, Spain

The Museum of Military Miniatures in Jaca, Spain, houses an impressive collection of over 32,000 tiny lead soldier figures arranged in 23 detailed dioramas depicting major battles from ancient Egypt's chariot warfare through Roman legions, medieval conflicts, Napoleonic wars like Waterloo with 8,000 figures, and up to modern 20th-century tanks.

Housed within the star-shaped 16th-century Citadel of Jaca, the exhibit originated from collector Carlos Royo-Villanova's passion starting in the 1960s, acquired by the city in 1984 and relocated there in 2001 with Ministry of Defense support, emphasizing Spain's military history including the Kingdom of Aragon.

Visitors enjoy a chronological journey through global warfare evolution in under an hour, complemented by spaces for award-winning miniatures, cork models, and live online streams, though primarily in Spanish.
