Altamira Museum is a place for learning, discussing and sharing experiences.
The Museum's aim is to conserve and study a real "treasure": Altamira Cave, its Palaeolithic art and the archaeological artefacts that have reached us from the Times of Altamira: the Upper Palaeolithic. This prehistoric heritage is on display in the Museum's permanent exhibition, while the Prehistory Workshops give visitors the opportunity to handle the tools and test their effectiveness, through the use of reproductions and reconstructions.
