Museo de Cuenca, Provincial archaeological museum in Cuenca, Spain
The Museo de Cuenca occupies a Gothic building from the 14th century, featuring three floors of permanent exhibitions with archaeological and fine arts collections.
The museum originated from a collection of Roman artifacts gathered by Francisco Suay, before moving to its current location on Obispo Valero Street in 1974.
The museum presents the provincial history through exhibits ranging from Paleolithic artifacts to 20th-century pieces, including Roman, Visigothic, and medieval periods.
The museum provides free admission through December 2024 and includes facilities such as a restoration workshop, photographic laboratory, and auxiliary library.
The exterior design received a transformation between 1981 and 1982 following the artistic vision of painter Miguel Zapata.
