Quite disappointing and it's sad that others think it's worthy. The fact that it took until 2012 for a museum about the indigenous Mexicans to open contradicts all the propaganda stated within. Add that it's a small museum with only 2 rooms and there is no cohesion of the items and info on display only worsens the situation. It's as though a few people were sitting around a table one day trying to come up with a reason to create yet another museum in this city and they said, "Hey! Ya know what we don't have? A museum about the indigenous!" There isn't even a map showing Mexico and where all the indigenous tribes are located. Sad. The room with 3 video screens is a waste because each is so close to the other that you can't hear what's being said. Better if the indigenous had opened a museum about themselves.

(Translated by Google) It is a small but charming museum, receives few visits and has been on the verge of closing. Among its interesting characteristics, Santa Ana was imprisoned there and it was a Diplomatic school. The building underwent changes due to the opening of Avenida Reforma but its architectural style can still be appreciated, highly recommended. (Original) Es un museo pequeño pero encantador, recibe pocas visitas y ha estado a punto de cerrarse. Entre sus características interesantes ahí estuvo encarcelado Santa Ana y fue escuela Diplomática. El edificio sufrió cambios debido a la apertura de Avenida Reforma pero aún se puede apreciar su estilo arquitectónico, muy recomendable.

Awesome museum, very educational and informative.

Magic

It's not a huge museum but it has a wonderful collection of objects that reflect the diversity and colour of Mexican culture. Exhibits included needlecraft, ceramics, masks, costumes, beadwork, weaving, instruments and more. All of the didactics are in Spanish but Google Translate helped me get the gist.

San Bartolomé Atlatlahucan

I love

Love this place

Super.

(Translated by Google) Museum that allows you to know what the life of diverse indigenous groups in Mexico is like, on its walls there are genealogical trees of the different languages ​​spoken in Mexico and it has many pieces of popular art. It is covered in a couple of hours and access is free, so it is worth your visit. (Original) Museo que permite conocer como es la vida de diverso grupos indígenas de México, en sus paredes hay árboles genealógicos de las diferentes lenguas que se hablan en México y cuenta con muchas piezas de arte popular.

Great museum, very informative.

This was a small museum but with plenty to see and learn about. There are two levels with several rooms. It was free to enter. The museum itself is in a beautiful building with a courtyard and seating. I recommend this museum for those who want to learn about prehispanic Mexico. There are many pieces of art, clothes, masks, photographs and lots of reading material.
