    (Translated by Google) A place to visit frequently. It is good to know about our history, the characters of our region. Well goes the popular adage, "he who does not know history, is obliged to repeat it." Enriching our cultural heritage. A place where pieces are preserved with which our history can be reconstructed. Every Barranquillero should pass through here and a mandatory stop for tourists. (Original) Un lugar para visitar con frecuencia. Es bueno saber de nuestra historia, los personajes de nuestra región. Bien dice el adagio popular, "el que no conoce la historia, está obligado a repetirla". Enriquecedor de nuestro acervo cultural. Un lugar dónde se conservan piezas con las que se puede reconstruir nuestra historia. Todo barranquillero debería pasar por aquí y un lugar de obligatorio paso para el turista.

    Right now it is free entry with donations, the building or mansion is falling down but what it can offer right now is quite interesting. They have a spectacular guide. You really learn from the history of Barranquilla, from data that was not known, or at least I did not know, it is worth reconstructing it.

    (Translated by Google) Requires urgent investment. It is falling and nobody does anything. It is not possible that the Mayor's Office or the Interior save him? (Original) Requiere urgente inversión. Se está callendo y nadie hace nada. No es posible que Alcaldía o Gobernación lo salven?

    It is not officially registered as a museum, however it is a house in very good condition that has permanent exhibitions. Rooms so varied that they talk about Bolivar, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, different allegories of the Barranquilla Carnival, aviation objects and decorations, exhibitions of models of different areas of the city and personal family objects. It is a bit messy and with little information that gives context to tourists, its entrance is expensive compared to other museums. There is only one caretaker who hardly gives information about the place.

    Well, that's falling. The apathy of the government entities of the city of Barranquilla will not even know that this exists. And well, the work of the volunteers trying to preserve the space is laudable, but without money and good wishes it will not be maintained, rather they are practically watching over a corpse. The apathy of an entire city towards culture is represented in the death of that museum. A real shame.

    Hermoso lugar que cuenta muchas historia, lastima lo deteriorado y el abandono por el que es parte, merece mas inversión por parte del departamento del atlántico, al ritmo que lleva las próximas generaciones se pierdan de conocerlo y el legado del fundador.

    It's the first time I visit this place. Despite the obvious apathy of the district government and the common citizen, it is a place that transports you back to the beginnings of the city, with a wealth of culture and traditions. The efforts of the few interested in this historical gem to preserve this legacy for the masses are appreciated. I hope we all do our bit to restore the history of this city and pass it on to our children and grandchildren.

  • 5/5 barbaracbb 6 years ago on Google
    Maravilloso para los amantes de la cultura, literatura, historia, arte, etc. Es cierto que está descuidado, pero no disminuye su atractivo cultural. La entrada vale 10 mil pesos colombianos.

  • 4/5 Ma C. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This museum is currently closed, what I have to say is that Barranquilla is sadly losing its cultural scenes due to countless thefts by the politicians who govern this city. We forget that we are the supposed capital of culture but ironically there are no stages ... the idea of ​​believing that the only cultural thing we have is the carnival has become popular (Original) Este museo en la actualidad se encuentra cerrado, lo que tengo para decir es que Barranquilla tristemente se encuentra perdiendo sus escenarios culturales debido a un sinnúmero de robos de parte de los políticos que gobiernan esta ciudad. Se nos olvida que somos la supuesta capital de la cultura pero irónicamente no hay escenarios...se ha vuelto popular la idea de creer que lo único cultural que se tiene es el carnaval

    La calificación de 3 estrellas es para hacer un llamado de atención a quienes tienen poder de recuperar este lugar. Este museo guarda una historia importante de nuestra bella Barranquilla y los jóvenes que te guían son muy dedicados. Vale la pena rescatar todo, mejor la infraestructura, reorganizar cada rincón y que cada ciudadano y extranjero tengan la dicha de visitarlo.

    El Museo Romántico es un espacio lleno de la historia de Barranquilla una bonita casa antigua, es un espacio que un grupo de personas estan haciendo un noble esfuerzo por preservarlo para el futuro, en el dia de ayer el arte del coro Masculino Amalgama nos enseñó sobre música y no dieron una gran presentación interactuando con el público un estilo novedoso. La próxima semana 11 de agosto 5:00pm habrá un conversatorio sobre Literatura en honor a Meira del Mar.

  • 5/5 José Ortiz Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Sitio emblemático de la ciudad de Barranquilla, una lastima que el gobierno local desconozca la historia y la cultura de nuestra ciudad. Deberían intervenir para una remodelación en alianza con el sector privado y no dejar que se siga deteriorando parte de nuestra historia.
