Environmental & Social
Helps to preserve the region's historical and archaeological heritage. We expect the running of a/c (+lighting) in such a large space to be quite energy intensive.
Conclusion
An enjoyable provincial museum providing good insight into the (pre)history of Almeria. Might be too specific for many visitors though

Educational
Nice building and layout
Very low entrance fee
Key negative
Nothing exceptional
Suitability
Suitable for all ages but younger kids may get bored quickly. No access problem for visitors with mobility issues
