Museo de la Torre Nueva

This museum, inaugurated in 1986, is located in the basement of a typical Renaissance house which underwent renovation work in 1984. The exhibition is dedicated to the memory of the "Torre Nueva" (New Tower), a clock tower originally built in 1520 and finally pulled down in 1892 because it was considered unsafe. The history of the tower is traced through almost 250 photographs, documents and paintings. While you are in the area, why not include the Casa de Fortea and the Pablo Gargallo Museum, which date from the 15th and 16th centuries, in your itinerary?Admission is free.

Museo de la Academia General Militar

The history of the General Military Academy, from its foundation in 1882 to the present day, is traced through the exhibitions which fill seven rooms. The collection dedicated to the "Sitios de Zaragoza" (1808-1809)is particularly impressive. Thanks to original documents and manuscripts dating from the War of Independence, the heroic defence of the city in the face of the Napoleonic siege is explained. A new museum dedicated to the siege is being set up in the old house which belonged to General Palafox, often known as "The Defender of the City". Visits are guided and must be in groups. Admission is free.
