Museo Histórico y Cívico Casa Cabañas

Museo Histórico y Cívico Casa Cabañas, Colonial heritage museum in central Comayagua, Honduras

The Museo Histórico y Cívico Casa Cabañas occupies the house of General José Trinidad Cabañas Fiallos, built between 1774 and 1875 in the Spanish colonial style of Comayagua: clay tile roofs, thick wooden pillars and wide corridors around a central garden. The west front walls and some interior walls are original. Its three rooms cover the Federation, Cabañas and the presidents from 1880 on.

The house was built between 1774 and 1875 and belonged to General José Trinidad Cabañas Fiallos, seventh president of Honduras. By 2000 the roof had collapsed and the walls were damaged; restoration by the Spanish Cooperation, the municipality, IHAH and the national government was completed in 2009. It was declared a national monument in 2006 and opened as a museum on 6 April 2014.

The museum's three rooms are named after figures it presents: the Federation Room "José Francisco Morazán Quezada", Republican Room I "General José Trinidad Cabañas Fiallos" and Republican Room II "Ramón Rosa". It also has a video cinema showing historical and scientific documentaries, and a shop selling school textbooks, national and international literature and Lenca handicrafts.

The museum is open to visitors throughout the day and can be explored at your own pace. Comfortable shoes are recommended since the building has multiple corridors and rooms to walk through.

The museum opened on 6 April 2014, after a restoration begun in 2000 with Spanish Cooperation, the Comayagua municipality and the Honduran Institute of Anthropology and History. The 6 million lempiras project included 1.5 million from Graficentro Editores, which signed the agreement with the city in 2013.
