What to expect
Museo Zacatecano
Museo Zacatecan, or Zacatecan Museum, is located in the city's historic center and was the headquarters of the Zacatecas Mint, which was founded in 1826. Federico Sescosse Lejeune, a Zacatecan celebrity who dedicated his life to defending and maintaining the cultural legacy of Zacatecas, founded the museum in 1995. Its collection is divided into three thematic lines: Huichol Culture and Art, an encounter with a living ancestral culture that is part of today's cultural diversity in Mexico; Popular Religious Imaginary of the Nineteenth Century, an approach to popular religious iconography that is a relic of an artistic past; and Colonial Forged Irons, notable examples of applied arts.
