Management of Museums within the Regional Ministry of Culture, Language and Youth
The powers of the Regional Ministry of Culture, Language and Youth in relation to museums of interest for Galicia are exercised through the General Direction of Culture. This body is responsible for the management and coordination of the Ministry’s museum and museum centers-related activities and aims to ensure the conservation, care, promotion and dissemination of the movable heritage of Galicia, above all through these institutions.
The functions of the Sub-Directorate of Archives and Museum Centers include the technical management and coordination of the Galician Museum Centers System, the management of the museums owned by the Regional Government and assigned to this Ministry and those museums owned by the Spanish state whose management has been transferred to the Autonomous Community of Galicia.
The Museum Centers Department, which is part of the aforementioned Sub-Directorate, is the administrative unit that coordinates all museum and museum centers-related activities in the Autonomous Community of Galicia.
