  • 5/5 Marcelo M. 2 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Fully refurbished and restored museum, with a rich collection, divided into four themes: collection of mythological figures made by Don Ramón Elias, which also includes objects and ceramics of Guarani origin; the second room corresponds to sacred art which includes figures and art from the Jesuit era; the third room corresponds to objects from the War of the Triple Alliance and the fourth corresponds to the life of Don Ramón Elias and his work. More than recommendable route, of approximately 1 hour, guided by the daughter of the creator of the museum. (Original) Museo totalmente refaccionado y restaurado, con un acervo riquísimo, dividido en cuatro temáticas: colección de figuras mitológicas realizadas por Don Ramón Elias, donde también se incluyen objetos y cerámicas de origen guaraní; la segunda sala corresponde al arte sacro donde se incluyen figuras y arte de la época jesuita; la tercera sala corresponde a objetos de la Guerra de la Triple Alianza y la cuarta corresponde a la vida de Don Ramón Elias y su obra. Recorrido más que recomendable, de aproximadamente 1 hora, guiada por la hija del creador del museo.

    (Translated by Google) The museum is very nice, everything is very clean and tidy, the place has its own parking inside, the museum is small but interesting about Paraguayan traditions and culture. The museum is divided into two parts, one about Paraguayan mythology and another part about Paraguayan soldiers and weapons of the past, almost all objects have labels with details and descriptions and information. The museum is located in the city of capiata and has an access cost of 10,000 Gs. For adults and 5,000 Gs. for children. (Original) Esta muy lindo el museo, bien limpio y ordenado todo, el lugar cuenta con estacionamiento propio adentro, es chico el museo pero interesante sobre tradiciones y cultura Paraguaya. El museo se divide en dos partes, una sobre la mitología paraguaya y otra parte sobre soldados y armas paraguayas del pasado, casi todos los objetos tienen etiquetas con detalles y descripciones e informaciones. El museo está ubicada en la ciudad de capiata y tiene un costo de acceso de 10.000 Gs. Para adultos y 5.000 Gs. para niños.

    (Translated by Google) The house was built by the owner, who collected the materials in different places and we swear that it is really old It is very worth the visit. It is beautiful and is located in a charming courtyard. The museum's exhibition, on the other hand, is small and consists mainly of antique furniture and utensils from home and farm. As it is in the "oro circuit" program it is worth a stop. (Original) A casa foi construída pelo proprietário, que coletou os materiais em diversos lugares e a gente jura q é antiga mesmo Vale muito a pena a visita. É linda e fica num pátio encantador. Já a exposição do museu é pequena e composta principalmente por móveis e utensílios de casa e de fazenda, antigos. Como fica no programa do "circuito de oro" vale a pena uma paradinha.

    (Translated by Google) A small youkai museum in Kapiata city. It is also convenient for access by bus along the main street for about 1 hour from Asuncion. I can see Mikosu, a youkai of Paraguay. It is likely that Mr. Ramon of this museum, the sculptor, made visualization of the mitos transmitted to Paraguay. I study Mithos, shape it in the legend, shape it, it is Mitos which is now familiar to the people of Paraguay. Everyone in the staff is very kind and recommended for families! (Original) カピアタ市にある小さな妖怪ミュージアム。アスンシオンから1時間程度、大通り沿いでバスでのアクセスにも便利です。パラグアイの妖怪、ミトスに会えます。パラグアイに伝わるミトスをヴィジュアル化したのが彫刻家であるこのミュージアムの設立者のラモン氏らしいです。ミトスを研究し、言い伝えの中の姿を、形にし、その容姿こそがパラグアイの人々に現在親しまれているミトスであるとのことです。スタッフの皆さんはとても親切で、家族連れにオススメです!
