Museo Kaluz

Mexican Art Across the Centuries: Colors and Private Perspectives Made Public

AREA

What Makes It Special?

The Kaluz Museum is dedicated to Mexican art from the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries. It is housed in a beautiful, restored colonial-era building across from the Alameda Central, and features a valuable private collection that is now on public display.

Did You Know…?

The building was first a hospice, then a hotel (the legendary Hotel Imperial), and is now a museum. The collection includes works by Dr. Atl, José María Velasco, Diego Rivera, María Izquierdo, and many others, with a focus on landscapes, identity, and the Mexican territory.

Don’t Miss

In addition to the museum, there is a restaurant with a terrace offering one of the best views of the Alameda. It’s the perfect way to end your visit with a cup of coffee, a book… or a glass of wine surrounded by masterpieces.
