The Vostell Museum was founded in 1976 in Malpartida de Cáceres, Spain. It is located in buildings that formerly served as a wool-washing industry. The unconventional art featured in the museum, such as a car with wooden legs and plates on the floor, was created by German artist Wolf Vostell. The museum's website can provide information on why Vostell chose to locate his art in the natural setting near the village of Malpartida de Cáceres.
