La Almoina Archaeological Museum
La Almoina Museum in València is no ordinary place: vestiges of the city’s history, from its founding by the Romans in the 2nd century BC to the Middle Ages, have been preserved in a single space. La Almoina Museum is a 2500 m2 space next to València Cathedral. In the medieval period, there was a charity centre for the disadvantaged on this spot. In fact, the Valencian word almoina means ‘alms’, lending the museum its name.
