Sarmiento House, House museum in Tigre, Argentina.
The wooden house features a ground floor with open space and an upper level containing a single room, protected by glass enclosures.
Federico Álvarez de Toledo Bedoya built the residence in 1855 and later gifted it to Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, who named it Prócida.
The museum displays personal artifacts, documents, and period furnishings that illustrate Sarmiento's dedication to education and literature in nineteenth-century Argentina.
The museum maintains regular visiting hours, offers guided tours in multiple languages, and hosts educational programs about Argentine history throughout the year.
Sarmiento planted the first willow rod in the Delta region in 1855 and introduced pecan seeds from the United States, establishing enduring agricultural practices.
