This modern museum houses musical instruments from around the world and across the passage of history. The collection is pretty well laid out in interconnecting rooms that take you on a short journey from the bongos of Africa to the guitars of Andalucía, and you're invited to play some of the instruments. There are flamenco shows (€15) at 1.30pm Monday to Friday and 2pm Saturday in a performance room at the end.
