Home » Conca Della Museum, Isona
The Conca Della Museum, which holds the Cretaceous Park, is the scene for an exciting trip to the past. The museum offers the possibility to discover an area that was occupied by the Roman culture in the past and, many years before that, inhabited by the last dinosaurs that lived on the Earth. The Cretaceous Park is a project developed locally based on the integral heritage of Conca Della. Thus, the Cretaceous Park allows everyone arriving to this area of the Pallars Jussa region discovering this territory and its different thematic environs -palaeontological beds, archaeological remains, historical-artistic buildings- as well as the natural surroundings in which it is set. Even though the museum collections are very specific, the Aeso Roman city and the valley dinosaurs are the reflection of Conca Della's heritage. For this reason, the ground floor shows a representation of all the interesting spots in the villages belonging to the valley. Conca Della Museum has been possible thanks to the co-operation of the Territorial Action State Office of the Catalan Government and the European Union ERDF, coordinated by the Agriculture, Farming and Fisheries Department.
Location: The museum is situated in the town of Isona, on the south of the Pallars Jussa region -Lleida province-, right in the middle of the old quarter of the town, besides the church, in a narrow street with well preserved stone buildings.
