The museum is strategically located in the historic center of Saltillo, at the corner of Benito Juárez and Nicolás Bravo streets. This location makes it easily accessible for tourists and locals alike, and it is surrounded by other historical and cultural sites.
Historical Significance of the Museum Building
The house that now hosts the museum was once inhabited by President Benito Juárez for a period of three months, from January to April 1864, during the second French intervention in Mexico. During this time, Saltillo served as the provisional capital of Juárez's republican government. This historical significance adds to the museum's appeal.
