Andalusia's Museum of Memory

Andalusia's Museum of Memory brings together elements from all the provinces of Andalusia with the purpose of showing their shared culture and essence, as well as the unique aspects of each region.

A journey through the history of Andalusia

Andalusia's Museum of Memory is located in the vicinity of the Science Park, in the southern part of Granada. Visitors can take an interactive journey through the culture and past of this region along its four large halls.

The aim of the museum is to show the diversity of Andalusia and the particularities of each of its provinces, which show different landscapes, customs, and artistic movements.

Also, visiting the museum is a journey into the past to learn about the lifestyle of the Andalusians during the Roman, Betic or Arab times.

The many attractions offered by Andalusia's Museum of Memory include guided tours, workshops, film series, and activities for the youngest members of the family.
