Free tour at the Gold Museum in Bogotá: Thursday, May 28

The Gold Museum of the Banco de la República in Bogotá opens its doors for a free tour that will immerse you in the fascinating world of pre-Hispanic societies. This Thursday, May 28, you will have the opportunity to explore the collections of gold, ceramics, and textiles that tell the story of the Muisca culture and other ancient civilizations. The tour will put the PMA (Museological Plan) in dialogue with the exhibited pieces, offering a unique perspective on Colombia's indigenous legacy. The experience includes a guided visit to the permanent rooms, where you can admire more than 30,000 gold objects, as well as tools, jewelry, and offerings that reveal the worldview of the original peoples. The tour is designed to be interactive, with detailed explanations of the goldsmithing processes and the ritual meaning of the pieces. The museum's atmosphere, with its modern architecture and dim lighting, enhances the beauty of the exhibits. We recommend arriving 15 minutes early to register and go through security checks. The museum is accessible for people with reduced mobility. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a water bottle, as the tour lasts approximately two hours. Don't forget your ID or passport for entry. Admission is free, but space is limited, so secure your spot by registering in advance. The Gold Museum, located in the historic center of Bogotá, is one of the most important museums in Colombia and the world. Its collection is a testament to the high artistic and cultural development of pre-Columbian societies. This tour is an unmissable opportunity to connect with the country's history and identity, in an environment that combines education and wonder.
