概要

クイックファクト: Housed in a former 16th-century Dominican convent, the museum merges medieval architecture with contemporary design. Over 15,000 art pieces explore Basque history, culture, and daily life.

見どころ: Visitors can wander through a glass-covered atrium where a suspended ship anchors the historic atmosphere. The museum's collection includes a stunning 17th-century polychrome wooden altarpiece that few expect to find here.

The glass atrium is perfect for photos early in the morning when light is soft and shadows minimal.
Skip the temporary exhibits during busy weekends to enjoy the main collection with fewer visitors.
