It is formed by the donation of original works and documentation made by the family of Jacinto Higueras Fuentes in 1963, in addition to the awards of the International Sculpture Competition that is held in memory of the sculptor. The exhibition spaces are articulated around the two floors with which the building has

On the lower floor we find a single room, with well-defined spaces; in it are exposed the religious sculpture, the family of the sculptor and the monuments. On the upper floor there are two rooms, in one there are portraits made by the sculptor and in the other the awards of the International Sculpture Competition. The permanent exhibition only allows to contemplate a part of the considerable volume of the work housed in the museum.

From its first occupation (Bronze Age 2500-100 BC): Ceramics and funerals, loom weights, tips or needles, among others.

From the Roman Age (Flavia Dynasty S. I d. C.): Packaging and ceramic and domestic like dishes, pot, bowls, dishes, glasses, etc.

From the Medieval Time, the distinction is made between Arab civilization (Almohad invasion) and Christian: Decorative elements and domestic life as remains of pliers, candles, jars, dishes, etc.

From the Modern Time, you can pick up passing doors, keys, arches, flow box, portraits, etc. From this time to highlight three very significant pieces, the first the painting of Juan de Bolaños, The old (the only preserved specimen of this author's pictorial work) that represents the scene of the Battle of the Navas de Tolosa that occurred in the vicinity of the castle of Castro Ferral. The second is the impressive tincture shown in the lobby of the Baeza Museum for oil storage. And, finally, the door known as the three keys and which in its day kept the most important documents of the city in the building of the High Concierial Houses.

They are therefore pieces that serve visitors of excellent procedure to know the life of man and brushes of the history of the city. But the main capital of the Baeza Museum is its own public, who when visiting it regains collective memory.

The collection is very much related to trades (barber, doctor, blacksmith, boticario, pastor, espartero, carpenter, midwife, sewer, tendero...) that are exposed in independent units with a multitude of objects forming a wide reproduction, where you can also see a wonderful sieve of the 18th century and the textile production of flax, wool and silk at the time. Also included are the domestic spaces of a bourgeois house, such as the living room, bedroom, cupboard, etc.

The Museum of People's Arts and Costumres of Begíjar has a library of consultation, specialized in anthropological themes with special attention to Andalusian ethnography and topics related to the contents of the Museum.

In recent years, the Museum has held numerous temporary exhibitions and published various publications related to workshops and research carried out by the museum itself. It continues to cooperate in all types of cultural events, whether their own, private or public, in order to promote the study of anthropology and social history in Begíjar.

In the first room of the museum, a chapel has been installed with a natural-sized Roman-Byzantine Christ mounted on a cypress wood cross. It is surrounded by a complete collection of twelve anonymous paintings of the 17th century representing the Apostles and a baroque size of Bishop Saint Ambrosio.

In the second room (weapons room) of the Museum of People's Arts and Costumbres of Alto Guadalquivir is decorated with shield-shaped panoplias with various weapons: swords, crosses, axes, alphanxes, etc. It also has two strands and carved arches, as well as furniture from the 16th and 17th centuries.

The third room (noble room), is the one that most structurically stands out for its completion in a Gothic cruise vault and its arches windows pointed with parteluz, also Gothic. It presents three flamenco tapestries of the 17th century, signed by Ian Raes and four bargueños forming together with their corresponding tables of the 18th century.

The museum building is especially remarkable, as it is a Mudejar house, a beautiful 14th-century building discovered during some works. It is known as Casa Mudéjar and presents a repertoire of pieces of paleolithic deposits of the province and objects of the Bronze Age excavated in the Alcázar district of the urban nucleus of Ubeda. The Roman-era pieces come from Ubeda, the Old One (the Salary Colony founded by Augusto). We also find pieces from the Iberian site of Castellones de Ceal and Iberian exvotes from the Collado de los Jardines Sanctuary.

It has two exhibition rooms and a courtyard of weapons, where the archaeological pieces of greater dimensions and weight are concentrated. Throughout the visit we can see various backgrounds, the fruit of the historical, cultural, archaeological, artistic and social development of Castellar.
From the prehistoric time we found axes and various stone supplies.

On the ground floor the remains of a Roman-era field have been musealized: coins, columns of buildings, etc.

In the next floor, objects of the Iberian culture of the Cueva de la Lobera shrine are exposed, one of the numerous archaeological sites of the municipal term of Castellar, a town whose origins are located in the final period of the Copper Age and the beginning of the Bronze Age.
