    Interesting
    Good display with plenty of explanations in English. It covers the gold story of the area and a part with gold search all over the world in all times. There are interesting pieces among which different devices used in the Middle Ages.. The outdoor part must be interesting tu but it’s closed in Winter

    Very nice museo and good experience overall. But we were here in winter time and most Outlook experiences was closed, in summer it would have been probably 5 star experience. Lunch in museum s restaurant was excellent and atmosphere was very nice
