Museum of Cartagena de Indias
Private tour of the Palace of the Inquisition and delve into the darker chapters of Cartagena’s history. Located near the peaceful Plaza de Bolívar, this grand colonial building once served as the seat of the Spanish Inquisition in the Americas. With Skip-the-Line Tickets and a Licensed Guide, you’ll explore exhibitions that reveal how religion, fear, and colonial power shaped the city.
Step inside to encounter preserved chambers and chilling artifacts, including original instruments used during interrogations. These somber displays offer insight into the methods of the Inquisition and the personal stories entwined with them. Yet the palace also reveals another side of life in colonial Cartagena, with exhibits featuring pre-Columbian pottery, antique furniture, coins, and religious art.
Admire the building itself—an architectural gem of the 18th century, with graceful stone arches, carved wooden balconies, and sun-drenched courtyards.
