Sant Feliu de Guíxols History Museum

It is considered that in 1919 it was the year of the constitution of the Museum, but it was consolidated in 1920 as a result of the donation of Dr. Ignasi Melé of archaeological objects.

From this moment on, a period of sustained growth begins, with renovations, restorations and gaining space with the transfer of annexed premises, the incorporation of new collections and the decentralization of the collection to the case of The Maritime Rescue Museum, which allows the Museum to grow up to the present.

Exhibits also include paintings by local artists, such as Josep Albertí, as well as an area devoted to health.

Restoration work has opened up spaces for visitors, such as the Romanesque towers of El Fum and el Corn, which flank the unique Pre-Romanesque façade of the Porta Ferrada (Iron Door) and the Palau de l'Abat (Abbot's Palace) areas, with rooms for temporary exhibitions.

The collection is based on 87 resources, a total of more than 150 objects that represent almost all of the material from the local Rescue Station.
