If you're looking for something a little more relaxed, you’ll want to head on over to the museum of La Torraza, located in an old fort estate that dates back to 1580. You’ll find an attractive exhibition of illustrative posters, models, items and audiovisual media that will take you back in time to the 16th century and help you discover the geographical, architectural and historical context of the period.
