In our studio you are going to find firsthand fine art pieces and the renowned artist who made them. It is a place where clay, plaster, glass, metal and fiber glass become into works of art. We promise that you will always remember having visited us.

This is quite an interesting gallery to visit, with very unique works of art, performed by different artists. There are even partnerships between USA and Cuba. Worth to have a look, and you can see the artists working. Free entrance.

Most museums gather fragments of their area of specialty, and use them to tell a story. This one is a story in its own right - not a fragment, but an entire pharmacy frozen in amber. All of the jars and vases and drawers full of the medicines used in Cuba a century or more ago are arrayed just as they would have appeared to a late 19th or early 20th century customer. Total immersion in a different world. And beautiful to behold. Matanzas is not going to be on everyone's dance card, but if you are in the neighborhood, do stop and see.

We loved this museum. It's free and donation based and the man in charge is a lovely older gentleman named Maximo. We've never met someone so enthusiastic and passionate about his city and history regarding the firefighters of Matanzas. Our favorite part was the stories he told about the Cuban-American counter-revolutionaries and the objects they confiscated from them as late as 2016! Lots of spy-worthy stories and a rich history of an organization that does a lot of good for the city. Tip : You'll make Maximo's day if you bring any firefighter memorabilia from your city/state/country to add to the museum's. collection. Badges, t-shirts, caps, etc.

This is the place where most people who like English music go. If you need a break from the traditional spanish, cuban music, go here. They had a live band that played everything from Bon Jovi, ACDC, CCR, ZZ Top all the way to the Cranberries. I had so much fun! Very busy. Easy enough to get drinks, which are reasonably priced. They ran out of Crystal fast. Loved the lights. Best part was the "security cat", looked like the cat was keeping an eye on the place. Wish this place had a giftshop! I would have loved a tshirt or something!

This stop was part of our sugar cane, rum, cigar excursion. The museum guide was very knowledgable. I learned so much about Cuba's history that I didn't know before. There were displays of kinds and a person could spend alot more time than we did on this quick stop. I would definitely recommend this museum.
