Zela house, Historical museum in Tacna, Peru

The Zela House Museum holds a collection of pre-Hispanic artifacts, including ceramic pieces, textiles, wooden works, and traditional fishing tools from the region.

Francisco Antonio de Zela resided in this building during the 1811 Tacna rebellion, marking the first proclamation of independence in Peru.

The Archaeological Museum Hall displays regional artworks and implements that represent the development of pre-Hispanic societies in southern Peru.

Located at Calle Zela 542 in central Tacna, the museum opens its doors to visitors from Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and noon.

The museum received official recognition as a Historical Monument on June 20, 1961, through Resolution Number 243 of the Peruvian government.
