  • 1/5 Juan Manuel Sotero R. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The schedule says it is open; however nobody opened me. I saw some people inside but they turned a blind eye. In addition the fence is locked and there is no announcement that says it is closed. (Original) El horario dice que está abierto; sin embargo nadie me abrió. Vi unas personas dentro pero se hicieron de la vista gorda. Además la reja está con candado y no hay ningún anuncio que diga que está cerrado.

    careful: MUSEUM'S ENTRANCE IS ON THE BACK / LA ENTRADA DEL MUSEO ESTÁ DETRÁS Small but nice museum, with a collection focusing on 19th century art of Paraguay and Europe (Regnault, Troyon, Rusiñol). The art exhibited is made by lesser known artists but the quality will please any art lover.

    Small place for a National Museum. If you want to have a guide, go in early hours or you'll be left out.

  • 4/5 Adam N. 6 years ago on Google • 32 reviews
    Definitely worth a visit. Lovely, private collection of European art and of those European artists who traveled to Paraguay and painted vistas and scenes of Paraguay. Includes busts of bronze and marble stands with 6 distinct rooms. There is a book at the entrance that thoroughly explains the pieces in the museum. The entrance is on eligio Ayala, not mariscal Lopez.

    (Translated by Google) It was under renovation, so probably the space must have subsided and the walls were very full of pictures, when they should be well spaced and with adequate lighting.

  • 5/5 Cesar S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It has beautiful works! It is not a large museum, nor is it very popular. But there are pictures and other very appreciable items! And as there are few people visiting, you can stop well and see details of everything. Be careful because the entrance is from the back street. When we arrived, it looked like it was closed, but we went around the block and everything went well. Very close to the Embassy of Brazil (Original) Tem belíssimas obras! Não é um museu grande, tampouco muito frequentado. Mas tem quadros e outros itens muito apreciáveis! E como tem poucas pessoas visitando, dá pra parar bem e ver detalhes de tudo. Cuidado pois a entrada é pela rua de trás. Quando chegamos, parecia que estava fechado, mas contornamos o quarteirão e deu tudo certo. Bem perto da Embaixada do Brasil
