The Archaeological Museum of Úbeda, situated in the city of Úbeda in the province of Jaén, Spain, is a museum dedicated to the exhibition and study of archaeological pieces. This museum provides a unique opportunity for visitors to delve into the rich history and culture of the region through its extensive collection of archaeological artifacts.

The Museum's Location and Architecture

The Archaeological Museum of Úbeda is housed in a Mudejar house that was discovered during construction works in 1964. This house was adapted for the museum and officially opened to the public on January 18, 1973. The house, which is organized around a central courtyard, is a fine example of domestic Mudejar architecture from the 14th and 15th centuries. This adds an extra layer of historical interest for visitors to the museum.

The Museum's Collections

The majority of the artifacts in the Archaeological Museum of Úbeda come from the deposit of the Jaén Museum, and are either donations or items unearthed during excavations in the province. Notable collections include prehistoric material from La Calera (La Carolina), pieces from the Iberian period from Castellones de Ceal (Hinojares), and Iberian votive offerings of bronze and terracotta from Collado de los Jardines or Castellar de Santisteban. These collections offer visitors a comprehensive overview of the region's archaeological history.
