MUSEO DE ARQUEOLOGIA DE EL CHAMIZAL |
|
ARCHEOLOGICAL MUSEUM - EL CHAMIZAL
As the result of high water levels in the Rio Bravo in 1864, the route of the river changed and El Chamizal was left on the other side of the river. Two years later, Don Benito Juárez put forward the corresponding reclamations to the United States of America but it wasn't until 1874 until serious discussions began. The problem was later ignored for a long period, then, during President Díaz's meeting with President Taft, the topic was reopened but was still not resolved until 1962, then, finally, on October 28, 1967., ownership of the land was officially transferred. The land was turned into a recreation park and one of the attractions offered was the Archeology Museum, the salons containing replicas and a few original peices from the most important cultures that flourished in Mexico during the pre-Hispanic era. |

MUSEO DE ARTE E HISTORIA |

MUSEUM OF ART AND HISTORY
(Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes - INBA - National Institute of Fine Arts)
The unusual architectural design of this museum was carried out by the architect Pedro Ramírez Vázquez in 1964. The idea was to present the visitor with an overall picture of the cultures that flourished in Mexico during the pre-hispanic period. In addition to the museum's historical content, there are spaces reserved for temporary exhibitions of local and national artists. |

MUSEO GARITA DE METALES |
|
GARITA METALS MUSEUM
Although small, the place is worth a visit in itself, given that it was built in 1889 and was the focal point for the analysis of metals extracted by the local mining communities throughout the State of Chihuahua. All metals had to pass through this process before being exported.
The museum is housed in the former Customs house and has a wealth of information on the mining carried out in the zone from the beginning of the 20th Century. The place also doubles as a tourist information centre.

MUSEO HISTORICO DE CIUDAD JUÁREZ |
|
HISTORICAL MUSEUM OF THE CITY OF JUAREZ
A beautiful building with the characteristic European touch that distinguishes the architecture of the 19th Century, previously home to the Frontier Customs House, the place was inaugurated in 1889. The French influence on the architectural style can be seen in the typical 'masardas;' the plafones de yesería and finely worked wood that complement each other with excellent demonstrations of metalwork on the balconies and other parts within the building.
This building was also the scene of the first meeting between the presidents of Mexico, Porfirio Díaz and the US president, William Taft, held towards the end of 1909; and, paradoxically, this was also the place convened for the signing of the treaties of the City of Juarez, through which the first stage of the end of the Mexican Revolution.
As if that wasn't enough, the building was also the provisional, presidential office of Don Francisco Indalecio Madero, a visit here is a visit to Mexico's history.
