Rather than just a parade of objects, the Guide links each work to its political, religious and artistic context to help you understand how Spain has shaped itself over the centuries.At your own pace, you explore ancient weapons, fine jewelry, monumental sculptures and precious manuscripts, with vivid anecdotes that give flesh to extinct civilizations.
