This museum contains artifacts and other historical exhibits on Santo Domingo from 1492 to 1821.
This place is huge. I loved the garden (although the upkeep could use some work). Overall a good place to blow off an hour or two in a cool shaded breezy palace.

In this Museum you will find the historical and scientific data on the time of the creation of amber, the animals and vegetation of that era that were fossilized in the amber, and everything concerning the formation and the characteristics of this gem.All the pieces on display in the cabinets, on the panels, in the large wide-field microscopes, dioramas, audio-visual and interactive technology have the purpose to transport you back to the origin of amber.You can also find fine pieces of jewellry to take back home in the jewelry shop we have mounted as a request of many visitors.
This museum is dedicated to the unique stones found in Dominican Republic, most specificallyAmber. You will only find Amber and Larimar jewelry in this store . The workmanship and the quality of the stones, however, is much superior to what you can find in other gift shops. This locale is a museum as well. The entrance of the museum is a staircase whose handrail is made of amber.It is a small but extremely interesting place, well worth a visit.

We are an a cultural institution, whose primary fundamentals are highlighting the figure of our National Hero General Gregorio Luperon. Besides being a compendium of the lifestyle of the 19th century. We are a historic cultural center a place of education and entertainment, provided that such spaces are necessary for cultural and social life of all people.
This was a well done museum tour walk thru with guide (for free- but tip at the end). Our guide was very nice and spoke well in English. She had only been working there a few months but seemed interested in what she was teaching us. The exhbits are small and it is a quick tour but completely important when traveling in the DR to understand the important of General Luperon. It was clean, air conditioned, and inexpensive. Do it!

Such a fascinating place. The architecture and art just make for a very unique experience that even people who traditionally don’t appreciate art museums will enjoy.
