The archaeological origins of the city

Located in the historic-artistic centre of the town of Lorca, this building dates from the 16th and beginning of the 17th centuries. The lower part of the façade has a sober style, while the upper part offers a wealth of ornamentation. The ten rooms of the museum take you on a journey through Lorca’s archaeology from different historical periods, from the Palaeolithic through to the construction of Lorca Castle, including Romanisation, and the Iberian and Moorish cultures.
