Museo Casa de Alfeñique, Colonial art museum in Centro Histórico, Puebla, Mexico
The Casa de Alfeñique Museum occupies an 18th-century mansion with elaborate stucco ornamentation on its facade, resembling sugar paste decorations.
Established in 1926 as the first museum in Puebla State, this institution preserves artifacts and documents from the colonial period through Mexico's independence.
The museum displays regional furniture, religious paintings, and decorative arts that represent the fusion of Spanish and indigenous traditions in Puebla.
Located at 4 Oriente 416, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 17:00, with general admission at 45 pesos and reduced rates available.
The building's exterior features white stucco decorations that mirror alfeñique, a traditional sugar paste used in local confectionery making.
