National Museum of Death, Art museum in Aguascalientes, Mexico.

The National Museum of Death in Aguascalientes is an art museum spread across three buildings with ten exhibition spaces. The collection features paintings, sculptures, lithographs, and photographs that explore mortality and how death has been portrayed through different artistic mediums.

The museum was founded in 2007 based on the private collection of Octavio Bajonero Gil. It expanded in 2014 through the addition of artworks from Daniel Mercurio López Casillas's collection.

The displays show how Mexican people view death in their everyday life, from sugar skulls to colorful paper cutouts. Visitors encounter artworks where death appears not as something dark, but as a natural part of living that deserves celebration and artistic expression.

The museum occupies three adjoining university buildings: Edificio "19 de Junio", Edificio "C.P. Humberto Martínez León" and Edificio "J. Jesús Gómez Portugal", which together hold ten exhibition rooms. Plan your route around these three connected sites in the city centre, since the displays are divided between them rather than in a single hall.

The museum occupies three adjoining university buildings: "19 de Junio", "C.P. Humberto Martínez León" and "J. Jesús Gómez Portugal". The site once held the convent of the Dieguino Franciscans, later the School of Administration of the Instituto Autónomo de Ciencias y Tecnologías.
