Casa de Colón

Very beautiful experience. Place is well organised and almost no wait. There is a shop at the exit. You can spend around 1 hour and enjoy. There is free bathrooms. Your free to wonder around. Lots of maps and restaurants from the 1500-1600. Lots of artillery weapons. Few model ships. Multiple paintings by Spanish artists although not a big fan. Definitely a wonderful place to pass by for tourists if your into history.

Very interesting building. One of the ‘must-see’ museums if you are interested in historical monuments. The ground floor is dedicated to history, maps, and illustrations of the Colon’s trips. The upper floor is mostly a gallery exhibition, which has nothing to do with Sir Colon, but worth looking at. Some of the paintings are quite breathtaking.

Casa de Colon is a small, nice museum in Las Palmas, in the old town called Vegueta. The building is very pretty, with patios, wooden balconies, and parrots. The museum has displays about the travels of Christopher Columbus. You can see models of his ships, old maps, and history from the Canary Islands and America. It costs about €4 to enter, and it’s free for kids. You only need about 1 hour to visit. It’s a good place to go if you’re walking around the city and want to learn a little bit of history in a beautiful setting.

Relatively small museum but very impressive. Worth having a wander around. Tickets are € 4,- per person.

A well-kept museum in a beautiful building. Casa de Colón focuses on the history of Columbus and his stops in the Canary Islands, along with broader themes of exploration and colonial links between Europe and the Americas. The exhibits are bilingual (Spanish and English), and the museum includes maps, models, art, and ship replicas. The architecture is just as interesting—inner courtyards, carved balconies, and peaceful corners that give you a feel for old Las Palmas. It’s not too large, so easy to do in under an hour. A solid cultural stop in the heart of Vegueta, especially if you’re visiting the cathedral or the market nearby.

4 euros for a nice walk through history of Columbus Christopher and the "discovery" of America. really interesting, totally recommend. small but sweet

Clearly a must have visit if you are in Gran Canaria. Small museum with occasional interesting things. Contains mostly reproductions.

Very Educational my children learned a lot about History.
