Museo del Carmen de Maipú, Historical and religious museum in Maipú, Chile.

The Museo del Carmen de Maipú sits beneath the Templo Votivo de Maipú and holds a collection of objects from Chile's colonial and republican periods. The exhibition includes documents, furniture, textiles, photographs, and artwork that document different phases of Chilean history.

The museum was founded in the mid-1950s through the initiative of Cardinal Jose Maria Caro and opened beneath the votive temple. This establishment was part of a broader effort to preserve historical Chilean artifacts and heritage.

The museum sits beneath a votive temple and displays a large mural depicting the Battle of Maipú as a focal point. This artwork catches visitors' attention as soon as they enter the space.

The museum occupies the crypt beneath the Templo Votivo de Maipú, the space originally intended for the remains of the heroes of the Battle of Maipú.
