Window into local history
Well preserved mansion donated to community that provides free entry for all visitors. Comprehensive English translation guide offered on entry that enhanced my visit and ensured I enjoyed all aspects of the 3 parts of the museum - the well furnished front rooms from the period 1904-1930, the archeological exhibition and the kitchen, wine cellar and servant quarters on the lower level.

Braun-Menendez Mansion
This free museum is located in a former mansion. You can view the opulent lifestyle of the Menendez family from a century ago. It is very reminiscent of the mansions in Newport, USA. There is an interesting collection of furniture and paintings on the main floor. When you enter you are required to put on booties to keep the carpets clean.
