La Libertad (Spanish pronunciation: [la liβeɾˈtað]) is a region in northwestern Peru. Formerly it was known as the Department of La Libertad (Departamento de La Libertad). It is bordered by the Lambayeque, Cajamarca and Amazonas regions on the north, the San Martín Region on the east, the Ancash and Huánuco regions on the south and the Pacific Ocean on the west. Its capital is Trujillo, which is the nation's third biggest city. The region's main port is Salaverry, one of Peru's largest ports. The name of the region is Spanish for "freedom" or "liberty"; it was named in honor of the Intendencia of Trujillo's proclaiming independence from Spain in 1820 and fighting for that.

Yet another great museum in Trujillo. For me they have the perfect balance of quality exhibits, accompanied by succint information in English. The entry fee is part of the 10 soles ticket for 4 sites in Trujillo (Chan Chan, Arco Iris, Esmerelda). Really great museum where you can photograph everything. Allow 30 to 45 minutes... or an hour if this is your first museum in Trujillo.
