- Museo de las Momias de Guanajuato - The Museum of the Mummies is a popular tourist attraction located in the city of Guanajuato, Mexico. The museum houses a collection of mummified human bodies that were naturally preserved due to the unique climatic and soil conditions in the region. The mummies were originally buried in the local cemetery during the 19th and early 20th centuries, but were exhumed in the mid-20th century due to a local tax on burial plots.
The museum has over 100 mummies on display, including men, women, and children, some of which are in various states of decay. The mummies are arranged in different poses and positions, with some standing upright while others lie down. Visitors can see the mummies up close and even observe details such as their clothing and facial expressions.
The museum offers guided tours and audio guides in both English and Spanish, providing historical and cultural context about the mummies and the traditions surrounding death and burial in Mexico.
