J	Joaquim Pereira on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Vale a pena. O museu fica num lugar da cidade de acesso não fácil mas vale a pena. Descobrimos uma outra parte da história do nosso espaço para não dizer país. O museu também tem à venda lembranças "diferentes" e a preços acessíveis. It is worth it. The museum is located in a place in the city that is not easy to access, but it is worth it. We discovered another part of the history of our space, not to mention country. The museum also sells "different" and affordable souvenirs.

R	Romão Ramos on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ MESA - Museu da Escrita do Sudoeste de Almodóvar. Museu temático sobre a primeira escrita conhecida no Sudoeste da Península Ibérica, do período histórico da Idade do Ferro, anterior à Romanização. O Museu apresenta um conjunto significativo de lápides, algumas das mais emblemáticas e conhecidas sobre a escrita do sudoeste. O piso superior apresenta uma réplica de um enterramento com a colocação da respectiva estela na sua posição primária. É o Museu de referência para esta temática na região, a entrada é gratuita! A escrita do sudoeste aos dias de hoje ainda não foi decifrada. TABLE - Southwestern Writing Museum of Almodóvar.

H	Heather Page on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Closed on Mondays. Looks like a great museum from outside. We went on a Monday and there was a sign posted saying it was closed due to unforeseen circumstances. We called the number offered on the sign and were told that the museum is closed on Monday. We also met the cleaning lady who told us that both museums in town are closed on Monday for cleaning. We'll be back another time. There is lots to see in Almodovar - check out the bridge on the East side of the city, as well as the Castilinho South West of Almodovar!
T	Tomas Swift-Metcalfe on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very interesting museum, the details the ancient script of the Cynetes, ancient inhabitants of Southwest Iberia, believed by some to be Celts, this would be the only record of Celtic writing, and is believed to use phonecian characters. The lady at the museum was very helpful and explained many aspects. In the area that are also other interesting archaeological sites such as Mesas de Castelinho, the food is good and the people are friendly, good for a trip for lunch or week exploring the hills, or view the carpets of flowers in spring.
