Museum of Footwear

The Museum of Shoes can be attributed to the unique sights of the city of Mexico City. It occupies one large room, where there are many windows, lined with shoes. The museum has a personal collection of Villamayor Ballinas, who were the owners of a famous shoe store.

The collection consists of 15,000 pairs of shoes. The basis of the collection is shoes of the XIX and XX centuries. There are ancient Egyptian sandals and wooden shoes from Holland, a copy of the boots of astronauts from the Apollo II spacecraft. Chinese leg bandages with the use of small slippers attract attention. Most of the collection consists of a variety of sports shoes and original shoes of famous people. On a small terrace, you can see with the help of a display miniature shoes made of porcelain, silk, bronze and other materials.
