CULTURAL ROUTE

Architecture & Heritage in the Historic Center

Museums where the building itself tells the story.

The Historic District doesn't just preserve history within its museums: many of them are extraordinary architectural landmarks in their own right. Former palaces, schools, and monumental buildings now house artistic and cultural collections.

This tour invites you to discover museums where the building itself is just as important as what's on display inside. It's an ideal tour for those who enjoy observing the architectural details that are part of the city's heritage.
