The Museu d’Arqueologia de Catalunya (MAC) is an essential national museum facility where history comes to life and time becomes a fascinating adventure. The museum integrates five archaeological centres that can be visited throughout the country: in Barcelona, Girona, Empúries, Olèrdola and Ullastret, Cultural asset of national interest (BCIN). In addition, the MAC also manages the Centre for Underwater Archaeology of Catalonia (CASC), based in Girona, the National Archaeological Repositories, located in Cervera, and the "Iberia Graeca" Research Centre, based in L'Escala. In 2009 the museum also promoted the creation of the Network of Museums and Sites of Catalonia, the Arqueoxarxa, which currently brings together twelve archaeological museums from all over the country.

A national reference centre in the research, conservation and dissemination of Catalan archaeological heritage, the MAC offers its visitors a rich and unique range of museum and cultural services and experiences, including visits to museums, open-air museums and sites throughout the country, as well as an extensive and varied programme of temporary exhibitions and complementary cultural and educational activities, which are constantly being renewed throughout the year.

Archäotechnica: Stone Age in Europe

Country
Germany

From the appearance of the first hominids to sedentary farming life, the Stone Age is an epoch of superlatives. Reason enough to dedicate a separate ARCHÄOTECHNICA to this chapter of human history. We have therefore invited numerous international performers and scientists to help us get in touch with life during the European Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic.
