Cannot fault the MEGA staff and experience. They accommodated us at very short notice and provided an English speaking guide just for us. Oscar was very friendly and knowledgeable and took very good care of us for the whole tour. Would recommend this tour we really enjoyed it.

The Museum of Galician People was created in 1976 with the objectives of research and the preservation, dissemination, defence and promotion of Galician culture in all areas, and, specifically, to create and develop a museum at the service of these goals. The first rooms were opened in 1977. The Museum has permanent galleries dedicated to the sea, the trades, the land, el costume, the music, al habitat and architecture, the society and the press and printing. The criterion used in its creation aims to provide an overall view of all the different facets that define the culture of Galicia. Far from enclosing this complex cultural phenomenon within the physical realm of the museum, the aim is to provide a compendium of the diversity of Galicia which can serve as a reference for evaluating the variety of forms within the group and to encourage interest in first-hand knowledge and the search for future alternatives.

The Museo do Pobo Galego is housed in the Convent of San Domingos de Bonaval, outside the old walled city near the Porta do Camiño (gate to the Camino Francés). This is an ethnographic museum on the Galician people and their culture, which for centuries has included migration to other parts of Spain and the Americas. This part is interesting, but the highlight is a magical triple helical staircase of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the work of architect Domingo de Andrade. The stairwell swirls with three separate ramps that lead to different floors. Supposedly, the idea was to provide privacy, though I suspect it also provided segregation of ranks or classes. The rungs of the ladder are said to be made of a whole piece, set in an outer rib fit without joining the wall or each other. My wife and I explored the stairs like children, eventually making our way to the top floor, from where you have a great roof-top view of the city.

This museum is located on the gallery floor above the street level of the Cathedral de Compostela. The museum contains rare historical artifacts and dramatic presentations of religious memorabilia, illustrates the evolution of the Cathedral and of the citystate from the first humble monument to Saint James up to the present era. The art here is gorgeous. You wander through the museum at your own pace, absorb what you wish and learn about the past in this historical venue. The Cathedral may be closed for renovation through much of 2019-2020 so this museum will be a worthwhile educational and tourist stop in the interim.
