There is so much to see and appreciate in this building. Having failed to recognise how much was there in advance, we were rushing around by the end as it closes at 5pm (on a Friday). The highlights for me were the ruins of the Moorish Alcazar, expertly preserved and featured in the central open space part of the building and the Spanish civil war section which really evokes the hardship and futility of war. In between those periods of history there are a wealth of treasures and informative displays with uniforms, weapons, logistics equipment etc etc to observe. I learned so much from this visit that I am now re-inspired to read my history of Spain book that has been waiting for my attention this last year!

Wish we had researched this properly, however lots to pack in during two days and my wife has a limited attention for what is primarily a military oriented museum. What an impressive place, from the visible Alcazar ruins in the building’s centre to the four floors of displays with a very detailed history of weapons, military uniforms, support items and important figures from Spain’s illustrious history. I found all of it interesting, particularly the poignant items and photos relating to the 20th C civil war and the models of the ruined building. Make sure to allow a long time, great value for €5.
