The recently converted building on Praza das Praterías stages changing exhibitions on the themes of pilgrimage and Santiago (man and city), and affords close-up views of some of the cathedral's towers from its 3rd-floor windows. The museum's permanent collection – an extensive and interesting assemblage of art, artefacts, models and memorabilia – resides in its original building 300m away, though there are plans eventually to move it to the new site.
