The Lady of Elche, a mysterious icon of Iberian art, continues to fascinate with her serene gaze since her discovery. This legendary figure sits at the heart of a journey that traces the epic of the peninsula, from the earliest traces of prehistory to the echoes of the modern era. The galleries reveal major treasures, such as the pure gold jewelry from Guarrazar or the striking replicas of the Altamira caves. As you pass through the rooms dedicated to Roman Hispania and the splendor of Al-Andalus, the evolution of Spanish technique and art becomes clear. Each vestige, from the Népérien abacus to medieval artifacts, tells a facet of this multiple identity. This comprehensive experience, which includes a guided tour to shed light on the secrets of the collections, offers a vibrant reading of history starting in June 2026.
