Great place to learn more about the full history of the wonderful island of Menorca. It takes you through a well spaced timeline of all the people who have come and gone from the island and the wars and sieges that took place here. They even have an exhibition of the typical food of Menorca and have some recipes that you can take home and try for yourself. Snails. They teach you how to cook snails.

Un museo muy bonito en un edificio de tres plantas que fue en su día un convento, tiene un gran claustro central con un pozo en el centro. En la planta baja se puede las exposiciones temporales, el gran claustro y salas de proyecciones y multiusos. En las dos siguientes se desarrolla la nuestra arqueológica desde los tiempos de la creación de la tierra hasta casi nuestros días, y la va desarrollando mediante señalética de distintos colores según la época que trata, elementos arqueológicos, textos y titulares explicativos y muebles con juegos y elementos de desafíos de lo que vas aprendiendo por el recorrido de la exposición. Muy bonita la exposición temporal de la evolución de la cocina menorquina desde la antigüedad, la dominación inglesa, la época en que Menorca volvió a manos españolas y hasta la actualidad con muchos elementos de cocina, ingredientes y fotos y textos. Al final, una escalera lleva a otra planta que no está abierta al público y en el techo se puede ver una magnífica muestra pictórica.

This is a very special place. A brand new museum which showcases not only the history of this contested island but the intricacy of its culture and the cultures that occupied it. From the excellent intro video to the displays and surprisingly readable supporting material, this is a must-visit for any Menorca traveller.

Good place to go to get a detailed history of the Balearic Islands. From the original prehistoric settlers in 3000bc to the invasions of Romans, Ottomans, Spanish and British, right to modern day. Reasonably priced and located next to the Santa Maria church by the port. There are facilities and a gift shop.

Engaging and educational for all ages. An excellent history of the island, its people and how it transitioned through the centuries. Excellent artifacts and short explanations of each exhibit in three languages. Not busy. Buy tickets on site. Enjoy.

Lovely museum to look into the history of the island. Especially welcome place to escape from the hot August sun. Worth noting that it is does close at 2:00 p.m. and they are super efficient at kicking people out. Definitely worth a visit.
