muBBla is the Embroidery Museum of Paso Blanco, one of the brotherhoods of Holy Week in Lorca. The monumental complex of the convent of Santo Domingo houses the museum (in the old church of Santo Domingo) and the Chapel of the Rosary. The handmade embroidery in silk and gold is an official candidate for Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. In the Chamber of Wonders you will see 6 of the first embroidered BICs in Spain, which are the mantle of the Virgin of the Bitterness and its canopy, along with the Prayer in the Garden banner (in 2018 it is 100 years old). In the annex Chapel of the Rosary are the religious images that accompany the Virgin of the Bitterness during the processions of Lorca: San Juan, Christ in the Prayer in the Garden and the Veronica.
