ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM



This Museum, which is dedicated solely to archaeology, represents a synthesis of the history of the province of Alava from prehistoric times to the founding of Vitoria. Through an examination of the remains obtained through archaeological excavations it is possible to trace the history of the different peoples who have inhabited the province over the centuries. Today, the museum does not only exhibit the remains of the past but also documents, researches, conserves and disseminates these relics among the public and the scientific community.

The items on show correspond to the cultures that developed in Alava between the Palaeolithic and the Middle Ages: Palaeolithic and Epipalaeolithic. Neolithic and Eneolithic-Calcolithic. Bronze and Iron Ages. Romanisation. The Middle Ages.
