Fodor's Expert Review Museo Arqueológico Torres Aparicio

Humahuaca History Museum

The former home of its founder, divided into two parts, visitors to this small museum can first enjoy a musical instrument collection that belonged to Justiniano Torres Aparicio, before stepping into the second room for a more archeological and paleontological experience. Exhibits include a pre-Hispanic mummy, everyday implements such as axes, pipes, and ceramics from the San Francisco culture, as well as pieces from Bolivia’s Tiawanaco culture and hunter-gatherers who inhabited the Quebrada de Humahuaca.
