Description

The building is currently the site of the Municipal Archaeological Museum. The Palace was part of a fortification which served as accommodation to Jaime II of Aragon, Ramón Berenguer, Pedro IV and the Catholic Monarchs among others. The museum was created by Alejandro Ramos Folqués and houses the archaeological remains found at the site of La Alcudia and the Elche park, some pieces from the Bronze and Copper Ages and from the Roman and Arab eras, together with an exact replica of the Lady of Elche, the original of which is in the National Archaeological Museum.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
