Tour Our Museum
The Casa Santo Domingo Cultural Center has a large collection of colonial objects, which has been formed through the years. The collection is very complete and is totally registered at the Registry Department of the General Directorship of Cultural and Natural Patrimony of Guatemala. From domestic sculptures to fine silver religious objects, it can be found in this collection. Part of it is exhibited in the main corridors of the hotel and in its rooms. Another part of this collection, extremely beautiful and unique, was reserved so that everybody could admire it at the Colonial Museum.

Pre–Columbian Art and Modern Glass – Art and beauty in earthenware, stone and glass [frame type=”left” width=”230″ height=”143″ src=”http://guatemalatravelpackages.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Antigua-Guatemala-Ruins.jpg”] – It is a comparative sample between an archaeological collection and one of modern glass, where the similarities between the two of them are shown.
The Colonial Museum was installed in a space outside the church that was used as a burial ground for children. Here there is a fountain that was probably used as a watering place. A mezzanine was built here that duplicated the capacity of the space, because it resulted in a second floor that permitted the exposition of 50 colonial objects of extraordinary quality produced during the 17th, 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries, and that includes religious paintings, silver objects such as lecterns, monstrance, crowns and chalices; sculptures of domestic wood and great format of angels, saints, virgins, cherubs, souls, and painted metals, most of which are protected in glass showcases.

Throughout the way, the curious person may observe how work is done in the wax and majolica earthenware workshops, two great traditional art expressions of Antigua, and he or she will have the opportunity to buy hand made artefacts.
