Museo de la Ciudad de Mexico

Avenida José Pino Suárez 30, Centro Histórico, Mexico City, Mexico
Tel: +52 5 5229936
 

The 27 halls comprising this 18th century Colonial palace offer an insight into the urban development of the city of Mexico through maps, maquettes, paintings and photographs on exhibit. The room in which the Mexican painter Joaquin Claussel painted his murals can be seen on the upper level. Among the many highlights found here is a large wooden door of intricate carved detail, including the coat of arms belonging to the Counts of Santiago de Calimaya. A presumably pre-Hispanic serpent's head, fashioned in a large stone, juts out from the building towards the corner of Republica del Salvador.
