Traveler reviews
Laura Steele Monahan
★★★★★2 years agoThis is a gorgeous museum! We spent about 1.5 hours, and that was with only watching a few of the video reenactments of different eras in Valencia’s past. The signage is in Valencian and Castilian, but the staff offers to loan you spiral bound translation books - and the English was excellent. An excellent choice for a hot afternoon.
Lucy Davies
★★★★★2 months agoReally interesting and a lovely building. Most of the signage just in spanish and valencian but they give you a booklet in English at the start with lots of information about each exhibit so we didnt miss out. Staff friendly, nice clean toilets.
