Housed in one of the majestic stately residences in the centre of Jumilla, next to the park known as the Plaza de la Constitución or the “Jardín de las Ranas”, are the Natural Sciences and Ethnography sections of the municipal museum, including very complete collections related to entomology, esparto grass, mineralogy, earthenware and pharmacy.
Of special interest to many is what is judged to be the best fossil register of “ichnites” – fossilized footprints – dating from the Tertiary in the world, but alongside these are also tools and machinery related to the grape-growing and wine-making traditions of Jumilla, an exceptional collection of paleontological fossils found in the municipality and one of the most important entomological collections in Spain.
These collections are an overflow from the main Jerónimo Molina archaeological museum in the Plaza de Arriba of Jumilla.
Opening hours: Tuesday to Saturday 10.00 to 14.00 and 17.00 to 19.00, weekends and public holidays 9.00 to 14.00.
10.00 to 14.00 and 17.00 to 21.00 (18.00 to 21.00 in summer), Sundays and public holidays (except those that fall on Mondays) 11.00 to 14.00.
