Haitian National Pantheon Museum, National history museum in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
The Haitian National Pantheon Museum is an underground museum complex in Port-au-Prince with galleries dedicated to the nation's history. The exhibitions display artifacts from pre-Columbian times through the modern era across multiple spaces.
The museum was established in 1983 and holds an anchor from Columbus' Santa Maria alongside documents from Haiti's independence movement. These collections document crucial moments in the nation's development.
The museum displays traditional pottery, colonial objects, and ceremonial silver items from Haiti's rulers. These pieces help visitors understand how different periods shaped the nation's identity.
The museum is located in the Champs de Mars district and offers guided tours in English, French, and Creole. Operating hours differ between weekdays and weekends.
The museum serves as the final resting place for Haiti's founding fathers, with their names inscribed on memorial walls around the central space. This combines the functions of both museum and mausoleum.
