The museum is located on La Casona Capalleja in Navelgas, a town where gold has been mined since Roman times.

[2] A visit to the museum begins with an explanation of the mineral itself, including its uses, physical properties, and its natural state.

Gold panning deserves special attention, because even today it is practiced as a sport with several different championships.

Following a multimedia presentation, visitors leave the field and head toward the central hall of the museum, where the explanation of Roman mining systems is amplified through replicas of their tools used for the extraction of gold.

This portion of the museum shows the process of separating gold, accessories, and trophies.
