The Municipal Archaeological Museum “Vicent Casanova” can be found in a building next to the Parish Church. It was inaugurated in 1970 and inside there is a good collection of representative objects of a long historical period that goes from the Upper Palaeolithic to the Middle Ages. Most of the elements have been found in the sites of the district but most of them correspond to the Sarsa Cave (located in the Sierra de Mariola), one of the most important Neolithic sites in the whole Mediterranean. There is also a replica of the Lleó Ibèric de Bocairent, from the 5th-6th century BC and a model of the interior of the Covetes dels Moros.
