Well worth a visit. 2e you can't go wrong. Strangely the upper floors have English translation but the entry level doesn't. There is the incredible three stair spiral staircase and an elevated view of the adjacent church. Personally I would have liked to see more about Galician influence on Spain, America and trade

Wow, MPG swept me away! Housed in a stunning old convent, this gem dives deep into Galician life think fishing boats, intricate lacework, and ancient musical instruments that hum with history. The triple helix staircase is a total showstopper, spiraling like something out of a dream. Tickets are €5 (or €2 for students/seniors, free for kids under 18), and trust me, it’s worth every cent. Grab the multimedia guide on their app for a richer experience, especially if Galician isn’t your tongue. Oh, and did you know the Pantheon of Galicia here holds the remains of legendary Galician poet Rosalía de Castro? Don’t skip this soulful journey into Galicia’s heart!

Very good museum to understand Galicia culture. I gained a lot of knowledge about the stone building of the church and the method of farming. If you want to learn more about the people live here, please come. If you want to learn more about the people live here, please come.

Great insights into the local culture, architecture, and history. The initial areas didn’t have a lot of English descriptions, so bring your translator app if you don’t read Spanish or Gallego.

We stumbled across this museum and didn’t know what to expect. Not much information in English however with Google translate you can figure it out. Lots of interesting artefacts and different information about local culture we learnt a lot. The spiral staircase is amazing. It was peaceful and quiet when we were there.

Recommended to me by a local Airbnb host. The museum is comprehensive in it's presentation of the history of the culture and folk life of the Galician people.
