Museo Casa Montejo

If you are staying in Merida for a couple of days and you have 30 min free , this is something you shouldn't miss, you would be able to see how this family used to live and learn their history.
There is also a photography exposition at the end that is worth visiting.

If you are into photography, there is a beautiful garden where your portraits will look absolutely gorgeous.

Former house of the city's governor, which had to be sold by the family after several generations and is now in possession of the Mexican National Bank. The villa was restored and is now available for public for free. Note the exhibition opens at 11am - before only the bank terminal housed inside is accessable.

Cool art to check out if you have some down time in Merida! Also free u0026 doesn’t take up too much time.

A gem in the middle of the city. It reminded me of Hearst Castle in California. Why not 5 stars? Eventhough the museum is free, I felt rushed

Not much of a museum to be honest. It takes about 2 minutes to walk through and has no signs or plaques to describe anything. It is also a bit weird that half of it is now a bank. But hey, it's free I guess and it's quite lovely to look at for 5 minutes if you're passing by.

Don't miss this museum, with beautifully preserved interiors and its dramatic facade. On a very warm day it is a great place to walk in the cool interior and learn about its rich history.

This place is truly breathtaking. The gorgeous entry is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Entry is free and they offer guided tours for those interested in the history of the house. If you’re more interested in photos i would recommend doing a self guided tour as it was a bit tricky to get decent photos when you’re crammed in a room full of other tourists. Bonus: it’s air conditioned!
