Fodor's Review:

The city's civic museum, housed in a modern building behind the Spanish Arch, contains materials relating to local history: old photographs, antiquities (the oldest is a stone ax head carbon-dated to 3500 BC), and other historical gewgaws. At the time of writing it was undergoing restoration, but it should reopen by Easter 2007.
