About the company:

The Monterrey Metro Museum is considered one of the oldest museums in Latin America. The construction of the museum building began in the early seventeenth century - in 1612 by the Mexican architect Diego de Montemayor. It was built over several centuries. It was completed in 1887. The museum has two floors. On the facade of the Monterrey Metro Museum is the coat of arms of the city. The museum building has been rebuilt several times. Its last reconstruction was in 1974.

The museum has four exhibition halls. Temporary exhibitions are organized there. Modern Mexican sculptors and artists bring their works here. All works are united by one theme: the theme of the subway. Each of the visitors can share their impressions of what they saw with the author of the work. There is also a separate presentation room. It hosts concerts and performances of local artists, important seminars and lectures, as well as book presentations.
