Palace of Fine Arts

The Palace of Fine Arts is located in the western part of the historic center of Mexico City, next to the central park of Alameda. Initially, the museum housed the First National Theatre of Mexico. But on the centenary of the Mexican War of Independence, the theater was given a new building, and the old mansion began reconstruction to suit the needs of the museum. The construction, which significantly changed the appearance of the building, was completed only in 1934. Today, the architectural style of the museum is defined as an organic combination of neoclassicism and modernism, and the interior of the interior is close to the Art Deco style.

The exposition of the museum is devoted to the history of theater, opera and ballet in Mexico. The collection includes numerous historical photographs and documents, costumes, details of scenery of famous productions, personal belongings of famous Mexican actors.
