Don’t skip the Timken, home to a small but impressive collection of American and European paintings, including works by Rembrandt, and Rubens. Download the free app on arrival and you can do a self-guided virtual tour of each painting on display. Built in 1965, the building on the main square stands out for not being in imitation-Spanish style.
