Why visit the Puerto de la Cruz Archaeological Museum?<\/h2>\n\n

Is the museum worth it? Our opinion:<\/h3>\n\n

Yes, it’s a tiny museum, but it’s well worth a visit, however short. Firstly, because it’s housed in a superb<\/strong> 19th-century colonial mansion<\/strong>, which in itself is well worth the detour. Secondly, because the visit enabled us to learn more about the fascinating pre-Hispanic civilization<\/strong> of the Guanches. However, the museum was under construction at the time of our visit, and we only had access to a limited tour.<\/p>\n\n

The museum is one of the city’s few institutions dedicated to local history and heritage. This is one of our favorite activities in Puerto de la Cruz<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
