StateThis museum is an ideal complement to a visit to the fortified settlement of Viladonga, and is particularly worth visiting for the quality and quantity of the archaeological remains on display. It is situated at the foot of the defensive wall of this Galician-Roman settlement, and contains a range of objects from the everyday life of the village dating back almost 2,000 years. Its collection comes from the excavations carried out at the site, which uncovered numerous items, including weapons, games, farm tools, ornaments, etc.
The museum's collection is part of the collective catalogue of the Digital Network of Spanish Museum Collections (CERES), conceived as a space for dissemination which enables visitors to browse the various museum collections using the identifying features of each item (author, type of object, iconography, etc.).
