off to the museum

we were trying to find the municipal museum as it has a good archeology section, but we were having a hard time finding it. we ended up back in the plaza maria auxiliadoe where we had walked down last night. no worries there was a nice Spanish guitarist playing so we just sat and listened and ate more cookies. eventually we did find the museum in the Palacio de mondragon- it was a moorish palace at one time, today it is the municipal museum.there are 3 architectural styles: mudejar style patio, the castilian style patio, portico and wood beams, works done in the 17th century and then the entrance patio also from the 17th century and remodeled in 18th this was the one with the red arches. . there was a lot of written info on the prehistoric and caves in the area....there are a lot of caves. some nice recreations or dioramas and a few artifacts. the patio courtyard is a part of the building from the moorish times.Leer más
