Robert Brady Museum

This 16th-century structure, which served as the home of American artist and collector Robert Brady until his death in 1986, displays over 1,000 Mexican works of art and artifacts.

Robert Brady's house is an absolute MUST if you are in Cuernavaca . It was an unexpected delight and a fantastic eclectic collection of his treasures beautifully and colourfully displayed. Each room is a delight and a surprise and there are excellent notes in English in every room explaining the paintings and collection.

Palacio de Cortes

On September 19, 2017, a powerful earthquake rocked the region and damaged the building's clock, which has since been removed. At the time of writing the Palacio was to remain closed to the public for at least a year, for damage assessment and reparations. Check ahead to ensure that it is open again, or simply enjoy the building's facade. This 16th-century fort once served as the palace and home of Hernán Cortés and includes a collection of Diego Rivera murals. TEMPORARILY CLOSE FOR RENOVATION

Due to the earthquake, quite a bit has changed in Cuernavaca including being able to visit Palacio De Cortex. Best viewed from outside!
