    Wonderful space, full of memories and history. It provides a very complete overview of the history of Paraguay, particularly the natives. The service was exceptional from my arrival to the presentation of the space and pieces, until my departure. I highly recommend visiting. It is worth it!! Congratulations on the space, organization and collection. Filming or photography is not permitted on site.

    Excellent option to learn about the ethnic groups of Paraguay through the research of the country's first ethnographers and a series of artifacts that represent them. ----- Excellent option to learn about the ethnic groups of Paraguay through the research of the first ethnographers of the country and a series of artifacts that represent them

    A nice little museum where you can learn a lot about the way of life of the Guarani indigenous people and also about those from the Chaco. There are urns, weapons for hunting, children's toys, headdresses and robes as well as various everyday items. There is also a comprehensive exhibition dedicated to the Slovenian researcher Branislava Susnik and her research expeditions.

    Nice place, sadly photos are prohibited. So much to learn about the native culture. It's free and have a tour guide but nothing in english, only spanish speaking and writing. Only stairs, not available for wheelchairs. You can buy souvenirs and bags made by original native people.

    De lo mejor que se puede visitar en Asunción, no solo por lo bien cuidado sino porque expone el majestuoso trabajo de Branka Susnik, la primera persona en recibir el premio de ciencias en Paraguay. No se pierdan la visita guiada de Gabriela Zuccolillo, es emocionante ♥️

    (Translated by Google) It is a very beautiful museum. There are several very interesting things. The person who makes the tour has a lot of knowledge, clarifies even the rarest doubts that could occur regarding what they see inside. In addition to the details that are seen inside. There are a lot of objects (which obviously cannot be touched by their conservation). In addition to very interesting facts about the culture. They will love everything inside! It is worth going to see it. (Original) Es un museo muy bonito. Hay varias cosas muy interesantes.
