Casa Cultural Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, Museum and national monument in Tunja, Colombia

Casa Cultural Gustavo Rojas Pinilla is a museum and national monument in Tunja, Boyacá, housed in the birthplace of General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla. After three restorations it holds a room with 118 objects devoted to him, the Sala de los Presidentes Boyacenses with 13 paintings, the María Eugenia Rojas auditorium, the Juan de Vargas public library with over 12,200 volumes, and exhibition and conference rooms.

The house is the birthplace of General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, president of Colombia from 1953 to 1957. María Eugenia Rojas Correa donated it to Tunja's municipal council and the Boyacá government through Agreement 68 of 1981, the year the museum was created. Law 50 of 1986 declared it a national monument, and it has since been restored three times.

The house museum bears the name of General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, who was born on this site in Tunja. Its Sala de los Presidentes Boyacenses holds 13 paintings of presidents from Boyacá, and a room devoted to Rojas Pinilla displays 118 collection objects. The auditorium is named after his daughter María Eugenia Rojas Correa, who donated the museum.
