Museo de Nerja (Interactive): Discover the history of Nerja and its heritage

Interactive museum that explores the history of Nerja from the Palaeolithic to the 20th century

Museo de Nerja is the perfect place to gain a deeper understanding of the culture, history and heritage of this town in Málaga. Located right in the historic centre, very close to the Balcón de Europa and the Ayuntamiento, it is part of the group of buildings that every visitor should include in their walk through the centre.

Through an interactive and engaging tour, the museum lets visitors discover the secrets of the Cueva de Nerja and the valuable archaeological treasures found inside it, some of great antiquity. It is therefore the best way to understand the origin and evolution of the town, as well as its rich natural and cultural heritage.

Managed by the Fundación Cueva de Nerja, the museum has established itself as one of the town's leading cultural centres. Combining a visit here with a trip to the Cuevas de Nerja offers a complete experience for those who want to truly understand the history of this corner of the Costa del Sol.
