Memory Traces - San Telmo Museoa, San Sebastian - suits of armour and swords

A visit to the San Telmo Museoa, San Sebastian.

San Telmo Museoa (English: San Telmo Museum, or STM) is a museum of the Basque society located in Donostia-San Sebastián, addressing old and contemporary Basque culture, arts and history in a European, global context. It moved to its current location in 1932, Zuloaga plaza in the old town, at the foot of the hill Urgull. It occupies a former Dominican monastery complemented by a 21st-century extension.

San Telmo is presented as a museum and, at the same time, as a place to disseminate knowledge and create thought; it is an instrument to understand the present and build the future from encounters with the past and with our roots. In 2011, a major makeover of its facilities took place by adding an extension to the convent and reshaping its facilities along the lines of its new conceptual approach as a museum of the Basque society and citizenship. The museum received a Special Mention in the 2013 best European museum contest organized annually by the Museum Forum.

Memory Traces

Encounters with other cultures, adaptation to the environment, borders... these everyday modern challenges were also part of our ancestors' daily life. This space aims to help us think about essential moments and milestones in the formation and development of the Basque Country, from prehistory to the 18th century, making their mark on its evolution.
