What a great museum this is. In particular, I highly recommend the Ruta Romana tour that departs from here. It is a 1.5 hour tour that takes you to many hidden Roman sites around the city, including an astounding walk through an intake Roman sewer. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly and did a great job answering my questions. I believe the tour is only in Spanish, so that would be the only downside for people who don’t speak the language.

Due to we can't speak Spanish, we got a whole book of the introduction with the museum. The staff there are very kind and friendly, gave us a lots of guidance. But the moving line is not very clear.

Excellent museum with, very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff. I was given a detailed explanation of the museum which is located in what was thought to have been a Roman prison but also has similarities with a cryptoporticos. The Roman city, its function and the history behind some of the museum artefacts was explained in depth. There then followed a short film with subtitles in English. After the film I was given a book with a detailed English translation for each glass case of artefacts which were located on the top floor of the museum, and which included a horde of silver Denarii. A fascinating museum which I can fully recommend. Also, at 5pm on various days, the museum also offers a very popular 2 hr guided walking tour of the Roman parts of the city.

The museum is CLOSED. And, surely, they don't mind turning away visitors by not updting their opening hours on-line or on google map but on their glass door. Don't waste your time to come out.

A most interesting museum, with beautiful exhibits from the Roman period of Astorga
