Museo de Historia de Motril

Technology and tradition under one roof
In the heart of Motril, you'll find a museum that brings the past to life - with displays, maps and ancient objects. The Motril History Museum is clearly laid out, but surprisingly complete. You'll take a journey from the earliest habitation to the industrial era, with special attention to Motril's role in sugar cane cultivation, seafaring and trade. Interactive displays and original documents help you understand the larger story without being dry or complicated. A fine blend of technology and tangible history.
Instructive for young and old
Thanks to its clear presentation, the museum is accessible to everyone: from curious children to serious history buffs. Families, couples, solo travelers or school classes - all will find something here that touches or amazes. And for €3 admission, it's an outing that costs little and gives a lot. You can bring your own bottle of water or snack, so feel free to plan a relaxed 1-2 hour visit. Combine it with a walk through Motril's old town, and you have a wonderful cultural morning or afternoon.
