Museo de Arte Visigodo

Many of the Visigothic objects unearthed in Mérida are exhibited in this archaeological museum, set inside a 16th-century church-convent just off the Plaza de España. It's a fascinating (Spanish-language) insight into a little-known period of Spanish history. In a little side room, there's a stone-carved Moorish inscription dating the Alcazaba's 835 foundation.
