National Archaeological Museum in Madrid
About
The National Archaeological Museum firmly dispels the notion that all museums in the Spanish capital are solely focused on art and painting. As the "fourth element," the archaeology museum perfectly complements the famous "golden trinity."
Established in the mid-19th century, the Archaeological Museum has amassed a vast collection of exhibits that most comprehensively reflect the customs of the Spanish people from ancient times to the present day. The modern exhibition includes a historical collection not only of Spain but also of Ancient Egypt, Rome, and even Greece. The museum is conveniently divided into rooms so that visitors can quickly find the desired monument from bygone eras by referring to the numbers provided in the guide.

tres beau musée avec une petite partie egypte l'entree est a 3€ et gratuit pour les moins de 14ans le musée se fait en une demi journée belle visite un bon moment

Es un museo increíble. Puedo decir que es el más organizado y mejor distribuido que he visitado hasta ahora.

The Museo Arqueológico Nacional stands majestically at the edge of Barrio de Salamanca delivering a captivating journey through Spain’s past with luminous courtyard galleries and an impressive permanent collection covering millennia of art and archaeological treasures in a setting that blends accessibility and grandeur.
