The showpiece National Archaeology Museum contains a sweeping accumulation of artefacts behind its towering facade. Daringly redesigned within, history ranges across Spain's ancient past — the large collection includes stunning mosaics taken from Roman villas, Muslim-era and Mudéjar handiwork, and the prehistoric Dama de Elche bust.
