interesting place, one of the few original houses still standing in the center of Caracas - original pieces of art and personal items on display
after many visits to Caracas, I got to visit the center of town, it is a bit more restored and cleaner than the rest of the city, I visited the Bolivar Museum adjacent to the House where he was born that is closed due to restoration works, the place is interesting but bear in mind that all explanations are in Spanish.
It's free and open everyday except Mondays. The wealth may be dated but is still impressive.
For us, Venezuelans, Simon Bolivar is the father of our country and an important figure for Latin America. Many Historians qualify Bolivar as one of the highest figures that ever lived in the world and coming to Caracas and not seeing this House is like going to Washington DC and not see the White House.If you appreciate History, this would be a wonderful place to visit.
This is an amazing place to understand an important part of the latinamerican culture. Simon Bolivar was born in Caracas - Venezuela and this was is house.. very interesting museum.
El complejo es pequeño de visita rápida, se observa la estructura típica de casas coloniales españolas y muchos objetos pertenecientes a Simón Bolívar (libertador).The complex is very small so is very quickly, you can see the colonial structure tipic in those days and a lot of things related to the libertador (Simon Bolivar and family).
Loved this charming little place. Well maintained and staff friendly and speak several languages. The history was very interesting for my kids.
It is always a pleasure to go.This house has been maintained very well and it is a good way to feel and remember our heritage.
These 2 small museums are worth a look as you wander around the historical centre of Caracas. The display on the exhumation of Bolivar's remains is really quite appalling.
If you are interested in Simon Bolivar, this is one you should see. A good compliment to visiting his mausoleum. The tour can take 20-30 minutes
