Bilbao - Museum of Basque Archeology, Ethnography and History Museo Arqueológico, Etnográfico e Histórico Vasco / Euskal Arkeoloja, Etnografia eta Kondaira Museoa / Museo Vasc

The archeological section, on the ground floor, displays prehistoric finds from burials in Basque territory. The cloister houses various tombs, memorial stones and pieces of sculpture, with the mysterious idol of Mikeldi in the center.

The ethnographic section displays selected objects illustrating the fisheries, agriculture, folk art and crafts of the Basque country. In a separate room is a large relief model of the Basque provinces.

The historical section includes examples of woodcarving and weapons, but is mainly devoted to the history of the Consulate of Bilbao, which regulated shipping and commerce in Bilbao from 1511 to 1829.
