Najbolje vrijeme za posjet
It is best to arrive shortly after opening in the morning, when the interior is quiet and you can enjoy the tour without crowds. Avoid the Thursday and Sunday market days, when the whole town is packed with tourists.
Savjeti za budžet
The entrance fee is around 25 quetzals (approximately 80 CZK), which is a very reasonable price given the scope of the collection. If you visit the nearby Santo Tomás church and the museum on the same day, arrange a possible discount directly at the ticket office.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Ovaj muzej smješten je u zgradi iz 16. stoljeća koja je izvorno služila kao samostan dominikanskih redovnika. Između ostalog, ovdje ćete pronaći zbirku majanskih stela, keramike i svetih predmeta korištenih pri obredima u obližnjoj crkvi Santo Tomás.
Istaknuto: Najveće blago muzeja čini izvorna zbirka pretkolumbovskih stela i ritualnih posuda koje otkrivaju svakodnevni život Kičéa davno prije dolaska Španjolaca. Vrijedne su i drvene maske iz tradicionalnih plesova koji se u regiji plešu i danas, a svaka od njih nosi ime i priču određene figure iz majanske mitologije.
Insajderski savjeti
- Bring a small flashlight with you; some exhibits are placed in darker corners and the details on the stelae only stand out with additional lighting.
- You will take the best photos in the monastery garden, where there is daylight and the stelae stand outside against the green facade.
- Ask the staff about the stories behind the masks; many of them are still used during festivals and have their own history that you will not find in the captions.
- Combine your visit with a tour of the nearby Santo Tomás church, whose ritual practices are closely related to the exhibits in the museum.
