Archaeology and painting

This museum is located in Hernán Pérez del Pulgar House, a stately 15th-century residence.

It has an extensive, important archaeological collection which dates from the Palaeolithic to the Modern Age, and includes Iberian remains from the Alarcos hill site, Roman mosaics from Alcázar de San Juan and the door from the old Ciudad Real synagogue. The Natural Sciences section has fossil remains that are about three million years old, found in the paleontological excavation in a volcanic area such as the Las Higueruelas site.
