The museum was founded in 1996 and has two large rooms where metals, ceremonial and utilitarian ceramics, mortars and a sculpture in the shape of a puma are exhibited, which come from the archaeological research in the area. It also has an ethnographic collection made up of agricultural instruments, textiles and typical clothing of the region, as well as colonial paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries.
