    Centro de Historia de Zaragoza

    The old convent of San Agustín (only the neoclassical facade remains) is the site of this museum. Each of the eight exhibit rooms focuses on a different aspect of the city's heritage, from trade and transport to popular celebrations. Of particular interest is a series of models depicting Zaragoza's physical transformation through four key phases of its development.
