Museo del Puerto

TIME : 2016/2/19 14:21:06

Housed in a colorfully painted former customs building, this small but engaging museum is a tribute to the region’s immigrants. The rooms include archives and photographs, and mock-ups of an old peluquería (barber shop) and bar. The historical collection starts in the yard outside, where a wooden fishing boat and other antique artifacts hearken back to the port's intriguing past.
