Museo Casa Diego Rivera

The birthplace of Mexico's most famous painter has been preserved as a museum featuring some of his original works and a collection of artifacts from his house.

Reviewed By SeveBellisteros - Kansas City, United States

I am a big fan of Diego Rivera so I very much enjoyed his home. It is beautifully restored and has several of his early works, which are not in the style for which he is famous. I would read about him in advance of going as the signage. /story telling is minimal.

9. Museo Iconografico del Quijote

Museo Iconografico del Quijote

This museum is dedicated to the story of Don Quixote and displays statues, murals and other depictions of this famous literary figure.

Reviewed By PaulPapich - San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

My wife and I loved this museum. Imagine, an entire museum dedicated to the mythical exploits of a fictional character. This might seem absurd, but then you visit the museum and the genius of the place reveals itself. The many galleries contain lovely works of art depicting the improbable events in the lives of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, and scholarly books about the author, Don Miguel de Cervantes, and his world-famous book. My wife and I loved this place. In fact, we visited twice in our five-day stay.

Museo Pedro Coronel

This museum holds Coronel's diverse collection of art, which he denoted shortly before his death, and also is home to a 25,000-volume Mexican history library.

Reviewed By sarandi2 - Sarasota, United States

A wonderful museum featuring sculptures by Pedro Coronel in addition to his own collection of a range of artists including such well known names such as Dali and, especially Joan Miro. A highlight of a trip to Zacatecas. A must see.
