Museum and House of Horacio Quiroga

The museum building sits among jungle vegetation near the Parana River, featuring exhibits of personal items, manuscripts, and photographs of Horacio Quiroga.

Originally constructed in the early 1900s, the house became Quiroga's residence after his 1903 expedition to the Jesuit ruins with Leopoldo Lugones.

The museum displays the typewriter, desk, and writing materials where Quiroga created his renowned stories about life in the Misiones jungle.

Located blocks from San Ignacio Mini ruins, the museum offers guided tours explaining the writer's life and the connection between his literature and natural surroundings.

The collection includes Quiroga's preserved butterfly specimens and a snake skin, representing his deep connection with the natural environment.
