Overview

The museum was created in 1976 and has been a staple in providing visitors a background history to the Island as well as an insight into the influences of local and national artists. Throughout the 16th century building in which the museum is located, witness an ancient pottery workshop, a burial cave, as well as a life-sized reconstruction of a prehistoric tower. Various exhibitions include the evolution of weapons among the early settlers of the Island as well as rooms dedicated to the Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance periods.
