Gibraltar National Museum
A comprehensive museum showcasing Neanderthal remains, the history of the Great Siege, and a 14th-century Moorish bath house.
The museum is built on the site of a 14th-century Moorish bath house, which is well preserved and is the museum's crown jewel. The galleries cover the history from the Neanderthals (in 1848, the second Neanderthal skull ever found in the world, 'Gibraltar 1', was discovered here) and the Phoenicians, through the Great Siege and WWII. There is also a large-scale model of the Rock. Located on Bomb House Lane beside Main Street, admission is about £5, and it is closed on Sundays.
