This lovely museum is housed in a former presidential palace, a one-story, tiled-roof house with a beautiful, manicured garden at the center. Inside you'll find Comayagua's history from the prehistoric to today, the highlights being some ancient Lenca artifacts, including a stela, polychrome ceramics, jade jewelry and petroglyphs. Most descriptions are in Spanish only.
