    The construction of the Museo ng Muntinlupa commenced on April 25, 2017 with an allotted budget of ₱180 million by the city government. It was initially projected to be finished within a year in time for the centennial celebration of Muntinlupa on December 19 but was completed within almost two years. It was opened to the public on March 1, 2019 coinciding with Muntinlupa's 29th founding anniversary as a city. The museum standing on a 3,000 m2 (32,000 sq ft) land was designed by Beaudon Causapin, the City Architect of Muntinlupa. The building's facade was designed based on the salakab, a traditional fishing trap made from weaved bamboo sticks and fasted by rattan rope often used by fishers working in the Laguna de Bay, as a tribute to Muntinlupa's fishing industry which is a major part of the city's economy. The Museo ng Muntinlupa stands five storeys high. The ochre columns and wire netting of the buildings were devised to manage the building's temperature by absorbing and deflecting heat. The Museum host a main gallery, a mayor's hall, an interactive science center, and a theater with 200 people seating capacity. It features exhibits featuring the city's history from the precolonial era until the modern period. It also features works of the city's contemporary artists as well as temporary exhibitions.

    Visited this place just now. They have parking space which is very good since most of the people who'll visit here may need to go using private cars to avoid more contact with other people. It is clean. There are attending persons. I admire the architectural structure and the design. Fresh looking on my end compared with othe museums out there.

    The artworks, paintings and artifacts are organized. There are lots to explore and learn, especially the history of the city. I would enjoy exploring the site everytime I visit. It doesn't bore me at all. It's interactive and innovative.

    The best local museum we've ever visited. It is well-equipped with a glass elevetor that offers a scenic view of the city center, a baggage counter with a helpful attendant, fine artworks hanging on the walls of the lobby greeting you with a refreshing sight, excellent air-conditioning, spotlights that don't shine on texts of the exhibits to the point that some parts cannot be photographed at a direct angle which is my problem on most museums; Glare is my main concern with the spotlights and I know it's not easy angling them to not obscure the texts, so good job, Muntinlupa! The replicas and relics are housed on clear and durable glass panels and you should definitely check out their digital map and scale model of the city that highlights every single barangay of Muntinlupa with different colors and describes them with a little background, statistics and all sorts of infographics. I could gleefully say that Museo ng Muntinlupa feels like a museum built in and for the 21st century.

    Pretty nice for a city museum. But there's quite a few typos in the displays.
