## Visit National Archaeological Museum Aruba

Activities

---

---

#### Learn about the culture and customs of the indigenous inhabitants of Aruba through a series of intriguing archaeological exhibits.

The National Archaeological Museum of Aruba provides a glimpse into life on Aruba prior to the arrival of Europeans. The exhibits trace thousands of years’ worth of history through a collection of more than 10,000 objects. Discover more about the life and culture of the early pre-colonial people through a series of reconstructed environments, archaeological displays and hands-on exhibits.

Before entering the museum, take a moment to admire the complex of buildings in which it is housed. Known as the Ecury complex, this compound encompasses the old family home of Boy Ecury, an Aruban war hero famed for his involvement in the Dutch resistance movement during World War II.

Enter the museum and browse the exhibits, which are spread over two levels. Begin on the ground floor at the Past in the Presentexhibition. This enlightening display gives an overview of the main historical periods covered in the permanent collections as well as information about the museum’s founding.

Continue on to the Home Lifesection, where domestic objects and tools provide insight into the daily lives of the indigenous settlers, who are thought to have arrived on canoes from the mainland about 2,500 years ago. Expect to see various ceramic vessels and objects with both ceremonial and everyday uses, as well as an assortment of tools that reveal the ingenuity of the local tribes.

For a more detailed understanding of the island’s history, head to the upper floor, where there are displays dedicated to artistic and sacred expression, as well as the indigenous people’s early interactions with European explorers and coloniser. Don’t miss out on the fascinating recreations, which include a reproduced Amerindian hut and a cave model showing examples of cave art that have been found on the island.

The National Archaeological Museum of Aruba is open Tuesday through Sunday, with limited opening hours on the weekends and closures on public holidays. It is located in downtown Oranjestad. If you’re coming from the city, it’s best to go there on foot. Entrance is free.
