Artifacts and works of art
The total of our collections is estimated at more than 17,000 objects.
The objects in the collections are not all on permanent display. They are mostly kept in storage rooms and are occasionally brought out to refurbish the permanent exhibit or to create thematic exhibits.
The collections can be divided into three broad categories: textiles and costumes, various artefacts from local heritage and visual art, divided as follows:
