History museums in Oaxaca

The Church of Santo Domingo de Guzmán is a significant historical site located in the southern Mexican city of Oaxaca de Juárez. Situated approximately 1550 m above sea level, this former monastery and mission church is one of the most imposing structures of its kind.

The Museo de Sitio de la Zona Arqueológica de Monte Albán is located outside the archaeological zone of Monte Alban. This museum is a significant part of the Monte Alban experience, providing visitors with a deeper understanding of the site's history and the Zapotec culture.

Visit this tiny house where the former president of Mexico spent his childhood. Small but revealing if you're interested in the past or politics.

The former government palace is now hosting a museum dedicated to Oaxaca and its history. Worth peeking in at least for the beautiful murals.
