Larco Museum

Don’t forget to visit the LARCO MUSEUM, with a huge private collection of ceramics and a very well-presented exhibition of pre-Columbian objects. And if it arrives at lunch time, do not forget to visit its restaurant… you will be surprised.

The Larco Museum (Spanish: Museo Arqueológico Rafael Larco Herrera) is a privately owned museum of pre-Columbian art, located in the Pueblo Libre District of Lima, Peru. The museum is housed in an 18th-century vice-royal building built over a 7th-century pre-Columbian pyramid. It showcases chronological galleries that provide a thorough overview of 4,000 years of Peruvian pre-Columbian history. It is well known for its gallery of pre-Columbian erotic pottery.
