Our guided tour through this museum started with the earliest pieces mostly with one color, then moved to ones with more colors and details. Our guide was excellent giving us the stories about how each era added new ways to create ceramic pieces all the way to modern times. This was worth the time to see.

This is a 15th Century hexagonal tower that originally had been a castle. Depending where you are, the tower appears to be square The castle was reconstructed to be a fortress. It has a wonderful location high on a hill. We walked up the stairs to each level (6) and then out on the terrace. The views from there are spectacular. It really is a must see.
