This palatial Beaux-Arts mansion on Avenida del Libertador was once a private residence and now houses an extraordinary collection of European decorative arts, furniture, tapestries, and silverware. The building itself — designed by René Sergent — is arguably the main attraction, with rooms that feel frozen in aristocratic early-20th-century splendor. Guided tours add real depth to the experience. It can feel slightly formal and hushed, which is either a feature or a bug depending on your mood.
