Museum

By Christopher Minster

This is a meticulously restored old hacienda featuring furniture and art from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Most impressive, however, are the 17 gardens and courtyards, each of which has been decorated in a different style. There is even a small chapel. The hacienda was once used to process ores. The museum is owned and run by the state of Guanajuato. There is a very pleasant café/restaurant on the premises.
