This museum is amazing, with the largest collection of guns in Spain. I also have a few armoured vehicles, a torpedo, a missile and a whit worth projectile among other things.
It is controlled by the military and there is a barracks at the back.
They are not allowed to charge admission and there is no book shop of any kind. To find its existence you have to go to the information office.
The lady who took me and who got the leaflet has lived in the area for over 20 years and never knew it existed until I noticed a leaflet there.
She had the leaflet, which I have copied for you, but I did not see it until after we left, consequently, I did not know of the ammunition hall, or the small arms upstairs. I just reached the ammunition display as I fell foul of the dreaded siesta and was rushed out. I was unable to return because it was my last day of holiday.
