Great Museum

The Museum of Human Evolution in Burgos is a modern museum center that accommodates, not only the findings of the sites of Atapuerca, but also the scientific disciplines that intervene and the scientific interpretations and theories that are extracted from them. Divided into four floors, it offers the main original fossils found in Atapuerca up to 1.5 million years old, the keys to evolution in biological terms, in cultural terms and ecosystems.

Interesting museum
We spent an hour and a half here. Interesting in contents. Several predecessors of Homo Sapiens unknown to us - and my husband has studied a bit of anthropology. Some exhibits somewhat basic and clearly they needed to fill a big building. Entry fee €6 and very reasonable.

Interesting
This was a great museum and definitely worth a visit IF you don’t have small children - there is a lot of reading on the exhibits to understand the flow of events and I think they might be bored; and IF you don’t have low vision - it’s fairly dark with white writing and poor lighting and could be difficult to see. We were there on a 94 degree day and they don’t have air conditioning (or it wasn’t on) so by the time we reached the top floor it was sweltering. We really wanted to visit the excavation site but found out it has to be arranged well in advance via email or phone.
