Its collection of engravings consists of nearly two thousand works, but that number has been growing thanks to various donations by artists, institutions and individuals. Among these is a unique piece by Eduardo Chillida, the only one in any museum in Andalusia.<\/p>\n<p>The collections on display, which are renewed periodically from the funds of the institution, offer a rich panorama of engraving in Spain during the twentieth century, from the historical avant-garde &#8211; Picasso, Mir\u00f3 and Dal\u00ed &#8211; to representatives of the different movements and trends that have evolved over the past century. And so, we can find pieces by Palencia, Maruja Mallo or Alberti &#8211; founder of the Escuela de Vallecas &#8211; or any of the Escuela de Madrid. And next to these, Tapies, Chillida, Antonio Saura, Lucio Mu\u00f1oz or testimonials given by Genov\u00e9s, Canogar and Equipo Cr\u00f3nica. Creators of a Hispanic realism &#8211; Antonio Lopez, Amalia Avia, Naranjo, and Jose Hern\u00e1ndez; sonstructivists and kineticists &#8211; Sempere, Palazuelo, Caruncho, Gerardo Rueda, etc.; or others who are difficult to classify and full of significance such as Jose Caballero or Antonio Clav\u00e9, and then those whose art has emerged in recent decades, like Gordillo, Alexanco, Barcel\u00f3, Sicilia, Broto, Capa, V\u00edctor Mira, Campano, etc.<\/p>\n<p>The collection of this museum is completed by the selection of the first medals from the missing National Exhibition of Fine Arts in the engraving section, from Ricardo Baroja to Castro Gil, via Luis Garcia Ochoa.<\/p>\n<p>In short, this is an ideal place to immerse yourself in Spanish contemporary art. If you want to know more, you can become a member of the Asociaci\u00f3n de Amigos del Museo del Grabado Espa\u00f1ol Contempor\u00e1neo (Spanish Contemporary Engraving Museum Association of Friends). Members have free access to the museum plus discounts and facilities.

Dom\u00ednguez built it on the remains of what was then known as Cortijo del Prado de San Francisco. It was originally conceived as a farm and in the beginning, it had a sugar mill and an animal-powered oil mill.<\/p>\n<p>The Fondo Hist\u00f3rico del Archivo Municipal (Historical Municipal Archives) are located here. This documentary heritage of the city is the product and testimony of the many events, decisions and circumstances that have occurred in Marbella&#8217;s history. As such, this Archive and its contents are the sum of a process in which the municipality&#8217;s and institution&#8217;s histories are combined.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Museo del Aceite (Oil Museum)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the northern part of the building is a complete oil mill powered by hydraulic machinery worked via pulleys, two presses (also hydraulic) in order to obtain the liquid from the pulp, and various containers for decanting oil.<\/p>\n<p>All of this engineering was cast in the second half of the nineteenth century, and they are remarkable reminders of the level of development and social importance of this industry in the province in those years (the machines were made in M\u00e1laga and Antequera).

This is complemented by various related pieces placed in outline: Roman amphora, Phoenician stocks, Roman trap, a counterweight and a modern cannonball.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition is complemented by three explanatory panels and three models that represent the three major sites of the Roman and late Roman: the Roman Villa at R\u00edo Verde, the Baths of Guadalmina and the early Christian basilica of Vega del Mar.<\/p>\n<p>Opening hours: Mornings: 09:00 &#8211; 14:30 Evenings: 17:00 &#8211; 21:30 Price: Free<br \/>\nAvenida del Trapiche, Marbella, 29601, M\u00e1laga<br \/>\nTel: +34 952 90 27 14<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn location\" href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/VBS6qudbPJz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Maps<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Municipal Collection of Archaeology in Marbella<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fuerte-group.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/collection-archaeology-marbella.jpg\" alt=\"Municipal Collection of Archaeology in Marbella\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the Plaza Altamirano, at the headquarters of the municipal Department of Culture, housed in a restored sixteenth century building, we find the Municipal Collection of Archaeology, which houses a magnificent exhibition of archaeological finds of Marbella and its surroundings.<\/p>\n<p>Among others, the Roman Villa at R\u00edo Verde, the Paleo-Christian Basilica of Vega del Mar, the Roman Baths, the Wall and Castle, the Watchtower, Trapiche ovens, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Opening hours: Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 14:00.
