Museo Provincial “Emilio Bacardí”

Tens of objects can be admired in the second oldest museum in the country, thanks to personal arrangements made by Don Emilio Bacardí Moreau. The exhibited objects include mummies of different origin, including an Egyptian one. An outstanding element is that it houses the most important painting gallery in Cuba, displaying an enviable collection of colonial painting dating back two centuries.
