De humo de tabaco a arte europeo El Palacio donde se fabricaron cigarros Museo Nal de San Carlos

The Palace of the Count of Buenavista was built in the late 18th century as an aristocratic residence in New Spain, and its walls are steeped in history, art, and the stories of important figures in the country's history. To design it, he hired the most important architect of his time: Manuel Tolsá. It was inaugurated as the San Carlos Museum in 1968, and as the National Museum in 1994 by presidential decree. Currently, the collection of the National Museum of San Carlos comprises more than 2,000 pieces, including paintings, drawings, prints, and sculptures, spanning from the 14th to the early 20th centuries. Music: Prelude BWV 997 by Bach, performed by Paola Hermosín.
