Calima Gold Museum, Archaeological museum in central Cali, Colombia
The Calima Gold Museum displays 615 pre-Hispanic artifacts made from gold, ceramic, stone, wood, and shell materials within the Bank of the Republic building.
The Bank of the Republic of Colombia established this museum in 1991 as their ninth institution dedicated to preserving pre-Hispanic cultural expressions.
The collection features objects produced by three distinct societies of the Valle del Cauca region: the Llama, Yotoco, and Sonso civilizations.
Located in downtown Cali, the museum opens Tuesday through Saturday and provides free admission to all visitors, with guided tours available upon request.
The museum contains regional archaeological treasures while larger collections from the Malagana society remain stored at the Gold Museum in Bogotá.
