The Archaeological Museum of Seville is one of the most important museums in the city. It was born at the end of the 19th century and expanded considerably towards the middle of the following century, so much so that it needed more space which is why it was moved from the former Convent of La Merced to its current location, the pavilion of Fine Arts built by Aníbal González for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929 and later donated by the Seville Administration.
The Archaeological Museum of Seville houses one of the most important archaeological collections in Spain and offers its visitors the opportunity to visit a conspicuous collection especially with pieces from the Italic side. The objects in the museum go through different historical periods: Late Antiquity, Middle Ages up to the Modern Era.
In the collection, the different sections of Prehistory and Protohistory stand out, in which the final period of the Bronze Age stands out, with evidence of Phoenician and Tartessic cultures.
There is also an important display of statues from the time of Hadrian.
