Museum of Prehistory of Valencia

The origin of this museum lies in the archaeological activity carried out by the Prehistoric Research Service of the Valencia Provincial Council since 1927. From that date, the different collections that are currently exhibited in the permanent collection of the museum, or among its collections, will be formed.

Located in the La Beneficència Cultural Centre, the museum displays in its permanent rooms the broad panorama of Valencian archaeology, with materials ranging from the Lower Palaeolithic to the Visigothic period.

In addition, it has temporary exhibition rooms, restoration workshops, didactics department and library.

It also manages the Iberian site of La Bastida de les Alcuses in Moixent (La Costera, Valencia), among others.
