    (Translated by Google) El Tambo Quirquincho was declared a National Monument by Ordinance No. 048/86. This recognition, promoted in 1986 by the then mayor of La Paz, Raúl Salmón, was the previous step to its opening on October 20, 1988. Currently the museum operates under the municipal administration. According to experts, the repository keeps two of the most important collections of paintings in the country. One is from pieces by the Great Masters of painting, which includes paintings by Borda, Guzmán de Rojas and Coimbra. In addition to pieces by Marina Núñez del Prado, Emiliano Luján, María Luisa Pacheco, Ricardo Pérez Alcalá, Alfredo La Placa and Alberto Medina, among others. These works, according to Salcedo, were acquired by the municipality. The second collection that protects the repository includes the winning works of the Pedro Domingo Murillo Municipal Hall of Plastic Arts, they are works created from 1953 to date. "We have 300 works from this contest, where we had teachers such as Ricardo Pérez Alcalá, Alfredo La Placa and others as winners," said Vania Coronado, head of the Tambo Quirquincho Museum. For curator Fátima Olivarez, the works of the Pedro Domingo Murillo Salon are very important because "it is one of the main competitions in the country, which has highlighted the work of Bolivian artists." The museum also keeps 1,000 photographs that date back to 1876 and that belong to the Julio Cordero collection. Three permanent rooms open According to Salcedo, for the next year the repository will open three permanent rooms on its first level. There, the cataloged works of his collections will be exhibited. The head of the museum pointed out that exhibitions will be set up with all the works they protect. The most recent acquisition of the repository was two weeks ago. "We bought two paintings, one by the teacher Gil Imaná and the other by his wife, the late Inés Córdova” (Original) El Tambo Quirquincho fue declarado Monumento Nacional mediante la Ordenanza N°048/86.

    (Translated by Google) The Quirquincho Tambo Museum is located on Evaristo Valle street, in Plaza Alonso de Mendoza. At the beginning of the Republic many tambos were built, here products such as coca, alcohol, flour and others were sold. Tambo Quirquincho was the residence of the Quirquincha indigenous chieftain. (Original) El Museo Tambo Quirquincho se encuentra ubicado en la calle Evaristo Valle s/n Plaza Alonso de Mendoza.
