The Archaeological Museum of Murcia, established in 1864 as an addition to the Museum of Painting and Sculpture, moved to a new building in 1910. In the 1950s, the museum moved again to its current premises, also known as Casa de la Cultura. In 1962, the building was declared a Monument Historical-Artistic.
Today, it showcases one of the most important Spanish collections of Iberian art in its 16 exhibition rooms. The museum displays prehistory, Paleolithic, and Bronze Age artifacts along with sections dedicated to Iberian history.
