04 Mar Archaeological Museum

I do love a good museum, so on our recent trip to Madrid (click here) we went to the Archaeological Museum. I’d visited before but that was along time ago and they’d refurbished it since. I was excited to see how it’d changed.

It’s well worth the visit. The refurb is very beautiful (though I wasn’t so keen on the stairs).

Here are few pic of my favourite things we saw.

This Lucy

Loved these ceramics

Especially the bird plate

A beautiful ceiling

beautiful intricate carving

Mosaic Quails

A cute mosaic bird

A close up of leaves

I loved this mosaic, particularly the little fish at the bottom.

A bulls head

Another bulls head

I like the expression on this bull’s head

This is the Lady of Elche, I thought she looked a bit like Princess Leia
