Review:
The Museo de San Telmo is devoted to the cultural heritage of the Basque country and the largest museum documenting Basque history in the country. Nestled at the foot of the Urgull Hill in the heart of Parte Vieja (Old Town), the original section of the museum consists of a 16th-century Dominican convent, which boasts a fascinating mix of architectural styles from Gothic to Renaissance. The museum houses a collection of more than 26,000 historical artifacts that highlight Basque culture, which is presented in different departments, including archaeology, fine arts, ethnology, and history. The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday and offers free admission on Tuesdays.
