    Very nice museum in the huge city of La Paz, you will find the great cultural heritage of Bolivia. The museum is very well preserved, it is in a very beautiful colonial style, it has a patio with a beautiful cistern and formidable tile roofs, but you can notice the presence of the great Spanish conquest in America, but well, what are you going to miss? do . Very friendly attention, although there was no guided tour!!! If you go to La Paz you have to visit this beautiful museum!!!

    The Museum is dedicated to the Bolivian hero Pendro Murillo and the building is the point where the decisions for the revolution of 1809 were made. With the ticket of 20 bolivianos you have the possibility to visit up to 4 museums on Jaen street. It is worth visiting and getting to know elements of the country's history. The museum managers are requested to put up signs in English for tourists.

    A small but absolutely lovely museum, house of colonial art, furniture and household items of Bolivian aristocracy. It is located in calle Jaen and it used to be the house of Pedro Domingo Murillo, the leader in the La Paz Revolution of 1809, that was hanged by the conquistadors where is now the Plaza Murillo.

    It is within the city's museum circuit, in this place the history of Pedro Domingo Murillo is known, who was a politically influential figure in his time in the city, promoting independence and freedom from Spanish rule to all the recent people of La Paz at that time. so. Murillo is remembered as a national hero in Bolivia. This museum is properly signposted in its different rooms.

    Small museum located inside a colonial-era house and dedicated to Domingo Murillo and the period of Bolivia's independence. The ticket is cumulative with those of the other museums on Calle Jaen.

  • 5/5 Matthew J. 1 year ago on Google
    Muy bonito museo si quieres revisar la época del siglo XIX, se conecta con otros 3 museos, de minerales, costumbrista y de la guerra del pacifico. Es cierto que en algunas exposiciones faltan descripciones, pero la variedad de objetos exhibidos es genial!

  • 5/5 Nardy Isabel Sandoval C. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A historical place that must be visited yes or yes. Impressive to see objects so old and well preserved. (Original) Un lugar histórico que se debe visitar sí o sí. Impresionante ver objetos tan antiguos y bien conservados.

    It is a short visit to that museum but it is the fourth part of the cultural heritage museum of La Paz which makes it a very entertaining complement to my best 8 pesos spent. Everyone was friendly. I didn't give it five stars because it wasn't a guided tour.
