Museo Fundacional
MUSEUM
(cnr Alberdi & Videla Castillo; admission AR$15; 9am-8pm Mon-Sat, 3-8pm Sun)
Mendoza's
Museo Fundacional protects excavations of the colonial
cabildo
(town council), des-
troyed by an earthquake in 1861. At that time, the city's geographical focus shifted to the
west and south to its present location. A series of small dioramas depicts Mendoza's his-
tory, and works through all of human evolution as though the city of Mendoza were the
climax (and maybe it was).
