Museo de la Basilica de Guadalupe

Museum of the Basilica of Guadalupe

Opened in 1941, the museum houses more than 4,000 objects including the largest collection of items related to the Virgen of Guadalupe, an extensive art collection, and exhibits of liturgical items used from the early 16th century to modern times. The museum is in a separate building from the Old Basilica, though it was once part of the Basilica until an earthquake caused a wall to collapse. The museum structure was a former monastery housing Capuchin nuns in the 18th century.
