Created in 1823, this museum has occupied a number of different buildings since its inception. However, the last and perhaps the most interesting building is the old Penitentiary of Cundinamarca. In 1946 prisoners were transferred out, and the building was assigned to host the museum, where you can still make out some of the old jail structures. It is known for its large collection of historical objects, including symbols of the country's history and heritage, as well as its permanent and temporary exhibitions.
