Casa Museo Basadre, House museum in Tacna, Peru.

The single-story stone building features a republican architectural style with adobe walls, wooden columns, and two interior courtyards connected by a vestibule.

The residence, declared a historical monument in 1978, belonged to Jorge Basadre Grohmann, a Peruvian historian who contributed to recording modern national history.

The museum displays the historian's original library, personal archives, manuscripts, and a wax death mask along with a mold of his right hand.

Located at San Martin Street 212 intersection with Inclan Street, the museum opens Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

The National Bank of Peru acquired the property in 1976 and transformed it into a cultural center in 2018, adding new exhibition rooms and lighting systems.
