The Museo de la Ciudad is dedicated to the history of the Valencia area and stands in the Old Quarter.
It houses an archeological collection illustrating the pre-Roman age and the founding of the city, and a part of the municipal art gallery.
The Museo de la Ciudad is a former palace of nobles, currently housing 15th to 20th century art from the collections of the Valencian government and private homes. Almost all of the painting and scupltures are by Valencian artists. Some are good, some are bad, but all are unknown. If you like art you could find this interesting – it is a pioneer territory.
Perhaps you will find someone who should have become famous but didn’t. Most of the collection, however, is religious themes of 15th-18th centuries. It also contains a permanent exhibition of Christian Valencia in the XIIIth and XIVth centuries, as well as temporary exhibitions of Valencian artists.
The museum also holds an interesting exhibition of medieval weights and scales, and exhibition of medieval locks and keys, and a collection of various art donated by a private individual.
