In this place, Joaquin Lopez Antay, the creator of the "Retablo Ayacuchano", was born and lived. Between these walls, you can feel the creative spirit of this great traditional artist.

This was a highlight of my time in Ayacucho. The small museum ran by the organization that was actively fighting against the Shining Path does a great and solemn job of honoring those deeply affected by the era of terrorism. At only 3 soles to enter ($1) it's a must visit. Please note that most of the displays are in Spanish but many have an English translation.
