Gibraltar Museum, National museum in Gibraltar city center.
The Gibraltar Museum is a national museum located in the city center displaying collections from prehistory to modern times. The exhibitions include archaeological discoveries, military artifacts, and materials on the region's natural history.
The museum was founded in 1930 and preserves important historical discoveries such as the Gibraltar skull, a Neanderthal fossil found in 1848. These early finds show how long people have inhabited this region.
The building incorporates remains of a 14th-century Moorish bathhouse that visitors can still see today. The displays show how people's daily lives and local traditions have changed and developed over time.
The museum is centrally located and easy to reach on foot. Weekday visits tend to be less crowded, allowing visitors to explore the exhibits at a relaxed pace.
A dedicated room features a scale model showing how Gibraltar's landscape has transformed across different time periods. This detailed miniature reconstruction helps visitors visualize how the geography of the place has changed.
