Spread over three floors, this museum in Paulilatino focuses on traditional rural life, with exhibits dedicated to baking, lacework, equestrian gear, glassware, basketry, farm and domestic implements and more. The museum also owns a collection of finds from the Santa Cristina archaeological site 5km down the road, but these are only intermittently on display.
