Your visit to the MUVI Museum is a journey through the history of Villafranca de los Barros from the Paleolithic, from which the first evidence of population can be dated, to the present time.
The museum is in the province of Badajoz and consists of twelve rooms where you will find a marvellous collection of items, models and reproductions depicting how the different societies of this town evolved down the centuries. If you are a fan of vintage cars, you will enjoy four storeys displaying vehicles of all ages.
Music has always played a fundamental role in this culture so the museum has a space dedicated exclusively to the musical history of the municipality, with an interesting collection of instruments.
