Great museum to understand the pain Catholicism caused in cartagena with the inquisition and the history of this melting pot (city ) of cultures. Highly recommended

Carl Griffin

A must visit. The sheer evil of the Catholic inquisition is well demonstrated in this museum of torture instruments.

Sara Marcos

Good place to understand the history of this city and it's people. Also good to understand the pain that Catholicism caused in Latin America. Highly recommended

Carl Griffin

Seat of the evil Catholic Punishment Tribunal of the Holy Office that sent over 800 locals to their death for magic, witchcraft and blasphemy.

If you speak other language other than spanish, I recommend you to get the audioguide. There are few annotations in english, and none in other languages .

It seems like the museum was opened many years ago, they made a few replicas , none original objects of inquisition, and forgot to take care of the exposition . Very few objects, with even fewer labels

Sara Marcos

Be aware that most of the museum will be in Spanish. If you can read and understand Spanish, you're going to love it. Not recommended for no Spanish speaking people

Lester Izaac

Cartagena has some nice spots, but like castillo de san felipe, there are no labels, organized tips and infos. They do not care about organizing the spot with infos and guidelines. Poor managemement.

Tony Harris

Great place to learn about the Spanish Inquisition

Step Armah

Less than 10 English language notations out of more than 100. And they focus on the building not the exhibits . Torture exhibits are bad replicas . Not worth the $16.000 I paid. The AC was nice though.

Hermosa casa, muy costoso el ingreso y aumenta con el guía, no espere ver una gran cantidad de historia u objetos, disfrute el patio , puede de uso de algunas máquinas de tortura bajo responsabilidad.

Recomiendo mucho visitar el museo , conocer un poco de historia sobre Cartagena, y de la Inquisición.

Gostei mais de aprender sobre a história de Cartagena no 2o andar. Os instrumentos de tortura dão aflição, não consegui ler as descrições. Os textos me pareceram um condescendentes com a igreja ...

Procure o Guia Professor Tony. Além de grande conhecimento histórico , é divertidíssimo.

Juan Chaves

Vale la pena, excelente colección

Anita Contreras Sepúlveda

Hermoso! Lleno de historia ! Tomar tour guiado dentro del museo

Ernesto Correa

La verdad es decepcionante, la relación del costo ( $17.000) con lo que realmente hay en el museo no paga la entrada. Valdría la pena que la ciudad buscara piezas realmente históricas .

Entrada 13000 col. Atenção ao "guias locais", não são afiliados ao museu e cobram valores a parte por uma visita. Não acho valer a pena. As informações históricas são bem explicadas nos pôsteres.

David Paredes

Conocer la historia nos hace menos torpes, aquí podemos se aprende mucho a comprender el pasado.

Claudia Herrera

Uno de los guías me trató de timar. No aceptar cuando ofrecen terminar el tour al frente por el mismo valor , porque al final se mandan citytour y te quieren cobrar 150.000 pesos col

Los domingos buenísimo para pasear

Elisa Trevisani

Conhecendo a história da barbárie católica...

Marcio Sartor

Achei bom mas pena que pequeno. Mais informações do que objetos também.

Lilo Piedrahita

Venir a las exposición de Martha Zuñiga "nemus Aqua"

Nicolás Arbeláez

Sólo pude recorrer la primera planta, no hay mucha accesibilidad

Carlos Mario Gonzalez Mejia

Lamentable que un lugar tan hermoso, clave y de valor histórico , este siendo tan mal aprovechado. Es un estafa ingresar . Lástima.

Rubert A. Osorio

Por 15 mil esperaba un folleto más completo

Carlos Diago

Súper interesante

Andrea García Medina

Mas historia por aprender.
