The Cinema Museum - Tomàs Mallol Collection is a museum dedicated to the world of film and moving images. It was created in the city of Girona (Catalonia) from the Tomàs Mallol Collection of pre-cinema and cinema objects, which was acquired in 1994 by the City Council of Girona. The museum was inaugurated on April 8, 1998, the first of its kind in Spain, which hosts a variety of material of cinema and precinema.

Finally, in 2010 was awarded the Martha Mata Education Prize, awarded by the Association Rosa Sensat Teachers. ==Origin== On April 8, 1998, the Museu de Cinema – Col•lecció Tomàs Mallol was opened in the city of Girona. This museum is unique in its field in Spain and one of the few of its kind in Europe. The origin of the Museu de Cinema must be found in the labour of Tomàs Mallol (born in Sant Pere Pescador, Catalonia, in 1923), in his passion for art and especially cinema technique, which arose in him at an early age with open air projections in the main square of his home town. An amateur filmmaker, from 1956 to 1977 Tomàs Mallol made 31 short films, some of which won awards in Spain and Internationally in the middle of the 1960s, he began to collect various cinema instruments that would later become the nucleus of his collection. This was also the time he began his intense activity of researching and see¬king out objects of interest. This would lead him over a period of more than 30 years to build a collection related to pre-cinema and cinema from the earliest years that is now recognized as the most important in Spain and one of the most outstanding in Europe. In January, 1994, the City of Girona acquired this collection with the goal of making it into the foundation of the Museu de Cinema - Col•lecció Tomàs Mallol, which is located in a three-floor building of almost 3000 square metres that is found in the centre of Girona. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cinema Museum (Girona)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
