Isabella II.aren errege-dekretu bidez 1867an sortua, Museo Arqueológico Nacional (MAN) museoak Iberiar penintsulako iragana arakatzen du, historiaurretik Aro Modernoaren hasierara arte. Francisco Jareñok diseinatutako XIX. mendeko eraikin neoklasiko handian kokatuta dago, Plaza de Colón plazaren ondoan, eta egoitza partekatzen du National Library of Spain erakundearekin. Haren bildumek Espainia iberiarra, erromatarra, bisigotikoa, islamiarra eta kristaua biltzen dituzte, baita egiptoar, Ekialde Hurbileko eta greziar antzinatasunak ere; tartean dira ikur ezagunak, hala nola Lady of Elche eta Guarrazarreko altxorra bisigotikoa. 2008 eta 2014 arteko eraberritze-lan sakon batek aretoak eta haien antolaketa kronologikoa modernizatu zituen.
