IBERIAN MUSEUM OF JAEN
New Iberian Museum with pieces related to the Iberian culture from the excavations in the province
After 19 years of project and an investment of 27 million euros (junta de Andalucia and the European Union), the new Iberian Museum of Jaén was inaugurated in December 2017 by the King. A presence commensurate with the project and ambition. On the premises of the former Jaén prison, an ultra-modern building of more than 11,000 m² now houses nearly 3,500 items relating to Iberian culture, nearly 40% of which have never been exhibited and are the result of excavations carried out in recent years in the province. This will make this museum the most important reference in this field for the whole of Spain. The province is also the most significant Iberian site on the entire peninsula. This is an opportunity to note that while this crop gave its name to Spain, it also left it many agricultural tools, pottery techniques, crops such as vines, olives and almonds. Not to mention the patio houses that survived until the Roman conquest.
