The Museo de Arte Religioso was founded in 1972 by the city's Archdiocese to protect and conserve the most valuable artworks of Popayán's churches. Divided into six halls devoted to specific artists, schools or topics, over 110 pieces are on exhibit. During Semana Santa the vault guarding the jewel-encrusted custodios is opened for public viewing. You may not photograph any of the works in the collection. Exhibit explanations are in Spanish only; Spanish-language guides are available.
