Cadiz Museum

The Cadiz Museum occupies a 19th-century building with three distinct sections displaying archaeological finds, fine arts, and ethnographic collections from the region.

The museum began in 1835 during the Mendizabal Disentailment when artworks from secularized convents were deposited at the Academy of Fine Arts.

The archaeological section presents artifacts from prehistoric times through Roman periods, including Phoenician anthropoid sarcophagi and objects from the Melkart-Hercules sanctuary.

The museum opens Tuesday through Saturday from 9:00 to 21:00 and Sundays from 9:00 to 15:00, with free admission for European Union citizens.

The museum incorporates Casa Pinillos, an early 18th-century bourgeois residence donated in 2004, adding 1,600 square meters of cultural space.
