International Museum Day - Open house day at the Town Museum

Every year, on the International Museum Day, we open the doors to the Town Museum, where there is a space where the figure of the Chronicler Ramon Muntaner, the medieval Peralada and the landscape and cultural riches of the area are disseminated. Empordà that explain the history of Peralada.

The Romanesque Cloister of Sant Domènec from the 12th century, a space of great beauty, which preserves columns and capitals with biblical and secular scenes of great expressive force.

The Museum exhibits archaeological pieces that appeared in Peralada, such as ceramic pieces, the oldest from the 4th century; the Key of the Triumphal Arch, from 1208; the seal matrix of Viscount Guillem de Castellnou, from the end of the 13th century; the mancuso and the money from Melgarés; the painting and the preparatory sketches for a great history painting, L'Heroïna de Peralada, by Antoni Caba i Casamitjana.
