Museum sights in Santa Cruz De Tenerife

  1. A

    Museo Militar de Almeyda

    Museo Militar de Almeyda explains the military history of the islands. The most famous item here is El Tigre (The Tiger), the cannon that reputedly blew off Admiral Nelson's arm when he attacked Santa Cruz in 1797. Much of the museum is devoted to the successful defence of the city, brought alive by a superb 30m scale model of the flagship Theseus.

  2. B

    Museo de la Naturaleza y El Hombre

    Museo de la Naturaleza y El Hombre is a brain-bending amalgam of natural science and archaeology in a former civil hospital. It has several fascinating Guanche mummies and skulls, a handful of artefacts, including pottery, and well-presented facts and figures about volcanoes and the flora and fauna of the islands. There's also a café and gift shop.
