LEYENDA DE
"LA ZACATECANA"

El recinto que hoy ocupa el museo, existe en medio de una atmosfera de misterio, que es posible apreciar al momento de visitarlo. La razón, como diversos documentos históricos señalan, así como el relato del escritor Valentín Gómez Frías, da cuenta de un suceso que se vivió en la casona que actualmente ocupa el museo. A principios del S. XIX una pareja proveniente de la ciudad de Zacatecas, llegaron a habitar el recinto. No tenían hijos, y ocuparon el lugar acompañados únicamente por la servidumbre de confianza.

Por motivos de trabajo, el esposo debía salir constantemente de viaje y la "Zacatecana", como fue conocida la esposa, debía quedarse prácticamente sola. Estas acciones dieron como resultado que las malas lenguas la tacharan de infiel. Verdad o no, lo cierto es que al poco tiempo el marido desapareció y no volvió saberse de él. Todo pudo haber quedado en el olvido, si no hubiera sido por lo que pasó después.

Best Museum in Mexico

J	Java Acosta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice place to take with a sad story behind it, it is kind of a creepy museum with great colonial architecture, there are a few rooms that I wish they were explained the reason behind them, there's a room filled with crucifix and one with clocks that I have no idea why they were like that... There is a nice view of the city once you're done with the tour.
S	Steve Edwards - Sitivi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Many antiques from the 19th and 18th century. The back story is a little silly but ads a touch of intrigue and realism to an otherwise simple display.
T	The Accountant on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Highly recommendable museum from this city, very accessible, if you show your student ID, they make you a discount, very interesting expositions and it's located in Querétaro's down town, they've got a viewer in one of the rooms where you can take nice pics.
S	Susana E Raygoza on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very interesting history of the couple that used to live there. The majority of the items from the house are from the 17th and 18th century.
A	Ana Valles on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Just as an fyi Children under 3 are required to wear a mask. We could not actually enter the museum because my 1 year old will not leave a mask on for more than a few minutes. They do offer a backroom for an adult to wait in with a child, which is a nice work around, although that does not work for our family specifically. Not sure how to score this review, just trying to pass on information I wish I'd had before arriving at the museum. I can say that the lady at the counter was extremely nice and did her best to offer every possible accommodation while following museum rules.
Y	Yoshimus Maximus on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you like antiques and the show Snapped, you'll definitely wanna visit.
L	Laurent Giraudon on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's a trap people! There is nothing left of the house inside, the walls are painted white. Soooo, you pay 60 pesos to literally see antique furniture, and then 20 more to be able to take pictures of said antique furniture. For 0 pesos I can just go to an antique store.
J	Jeff Andresen on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Elegant house with lots of period antiques and furnishings. 2 videos telling about the history of the house. Well worth a stop to visit.
