Overview

Vastly different from the surrounding colonial constructions, this four-story building, constructed using a modern design, was inaugurated in 1983 as part of the Bicentennial Celebrations of 'The Liberator's' birthday. You will find a valuable historical record of Simon Bolr, including documents relating to his march across the Andes in 1813. The premises also functions as a museum and exhibition space, and houses the Instituto Municipal de la Cultura (Municipal Cultural Centre); the Sociedad Bolivariana (Bolr Society); and the National Cinema Festival as well. Admission varies by exhibit - no credit cards accepted.
