MAJA Museum Anthropologia y Arte, Archaeological museum in Jericó, Colombia
The MAJA Museum spans across multiple buildings in Jericó, featuring over 2000 certified pre-Columbian artifacts and contemporary art exhibitions throughout its spaces.
Founded forty years ago as the Archaeological Museum of the Southwest, MAJA relocated to its current location in 2008 and received municipal authorization in 2010.
The museum maintains a documentation center called Programa Plus Ultra and organizes chamber concerts, workshops, and film forums to promote regional cultural expressions.
Located one block from Jericó's central park, the museum operates Monday through Friday with specific morning and afternoon hours, plus Sunday visits from 9:00 to 17:00.
The permanent exhibition 'JERICÓ: Cartography of a History in Construction' connects the region's archaeological findings with documentary narratives about the present day.
