In this activity visitors will have the opportunity to live a true Medieval experience with the recreation of a market of the era, decoration, recreation of jobs and characters of the time as well as an exhibit of medieval weapons and a special area to build castles with wood blocks.

The permanent exhibit rooms will also be accessible for visitors.

For those who wish to live this unique experience ticket price is of just 2 thousand colones for nationals and $13 for foreigners (foreign students $5.00).

The Splendor of the Catalan Medieval Castles takes the public to the historic past of the X – XV centuries in the Kingdome of Spain.

During this period defensive military constructions were built that as time went by have become the historic image of the era.

The exhibit includes original objects as well as replicas, photos, virtual experiences, animation and simulation of some medieval objects such as a wall or surveillance tower.

“The exhibit has close to 50 original objects and 2 replicas, among them, swords, helmets, dishes, oil lamps and a chess game that are part of that 500 year lapse”, describes the Jade Museum.
