Museo de la Ciudad de Valencia

About the museum

The museum is housed in the Palacio del Marqués de Campo, a 19th-century stately home in the historic centre of Valencia, on the Plaza del Arzobispo. It holds the city's municipal heritage: archaeological remains, religious objects, coins, documents, prints, furniture and ceramics.

Alongside its own collection, the museum stages temporary exhibitions, mainly of Valencian artists, and has an assembly hall. The building consists of an old palace and a more modern extension, connected to each other.

The City Council has announced improvement and security works for the building, which began on 7 September 2026, in order to temporarily house more than 200 works by Joaquín Sorolla from the Hispanic Society of America. The works are expected to arrive in November 2026 and will be shown to the public in early 2027, until the museum's permanent home is ready. The City Council also plans to recover the Palacio de los Marqueses de Montortal as a second venue for the museum.
