Museo de América

  Museo de América sits quietly at Av. de los Reyes Católicos, nestled in the Moncloa-Aravaca district of Madrid. Established in 1965, this museum is dedicated to the rich cultural heritage of Latin America and the indigenous peoples of Spain’s former colonies. One of its main features is an extensive collection of over 25,000 art pieces, including textiles, pottery, and pre-Columbian artifacts that reflect the diverse cultures of the Americas. During the summer months, visitors can take advantage of extended opening hours, allowing for a more leisurely exploration of its exhibits. While there, don’t miss the intriguing display of an ancient Incan textile, which showcases the intricate craftsmanship of its creators and offers insight into their daily lives and traditions.
