In 1980 three Young craftsmen opened a small workshop in the Calle Mayor in Hondarribia and started to créate their own puppets.

Soon they started to travel to the most important exhibitions in the Basque Country and represented Euskadi in several international exhibitions such as Le Mans, Barcelona or Sevilla. This enabled Menina to be consolidated as an international reference in Puppet workshops.

Our work is aimed at home decoration, and given the versatility of our craftsmanship we also collaborate with interior designers who seek to give that special touch to their business.

Great craftsmen. Sympathy, kindness and generosity when opening their workshop to show their work without misgivings. I will always have fond memories of Hondarribia thanks to them.

Manuel Rubio Rosillo

A very nice workshop, with a magical atmosphere and a lot of art.

MENINA ARTISANS PUPPETS

Throughout history puppets have always been man’s fundamental means of communication, capable of uniting different cultures, ages and sensibilities. This is something atavistic, nearly magical which relates to our most primitive ego.
