Museo de Nerja

Nerja’s museum traces the history of the town from the cave dwellers of Paleolithic times to the tourist-boom years of the ’60s, and is well worth a browse – preferably before you visit the Cueva de Nerja. The museum's highlights centre on artefacts found in the caves and range from the thought-provoking skeleton of an adult cave dweller to a fascinatingly mundane prehistoric cheese dish.
