Museo de Sitio Túcume

The museum stands within a complex of 26 pyramids, displaying archaeological artifacts in a 23,000-square-meter facility near ancient structures.

Established in 1992, the museum preserves findings from excavations conducted between 1989 and 1994, revealing objects from Lambayeque, Chimu, and Inca periods.

The exhibits contain metal works, textiles, and ceremonial items that demonstrate the technological and artistic capabilities of pre-Columbian societies.
