Why go

Study objects recovered from local excavations to see how daily life changed across the province. This specialist archaeology collection is distinct from the older Euskal Museoa opposite, which presents broader Basque ethnographic culture. The station building itself adds another layer of local history.

What to look for

  • The separate Archaeological Museum displays finds from across Bizkaia in the former Lezama station.

Useful to know

  • Check current access before entering; exterior observations can be made from public approaches.
