This is well designed museum that gives a crash course in RD history ( an dhow it's linked to the USA and other foreign influences. When you finish this tour, you'll know who's on the money in your pockets and be much more informed about the country you're seeing. A must!!
I worked in the construction of this museum a few years ago and it was amazing.
Very interesting, emotioned be the history of this beautiful country
A super interesting museum about Trujillo's dictatorship and authoritarian governments in the Dominican Republic
Great experience, I recommend visiting it to know more about Dominican history of resistence. It has a lot of details of the dictator Trujillo's era, memorabilia and cool antics (such as a talking wax figure of resistance leader Manolo Tavarez). You can also watch a montage of the Mirabal sisters: their murder triggered the fall of Trujillo.
If you want to learn about contemporary Dominican history and how the resistance shaped it, this is the place to go. It takes time, it's like going through a history book, but it's worth your time.
A marvelous modern museum! This is a center for Dominican culture and nationalism, with events every week and frequent new special exhibits. If you read Spanish you can learn reams about the DR's 20th century history. Even without Spanish, there's a lot to see, including the reconstructed basement torture chamber of Generalissimo Trujillo.
Great place to learn about Dominican people and their culture.
Is a history place.
