Museo Iloilo houses historical and archaelogical artifacts donated by generous ilonggos. Various artifacts includes world war II relics, old weaving loom, Spanish era clothings and pre-spanish period China Jars . Who wouldn’t miss the statue of dead christ which never fails to give me the shivers. Ilonggo architect Sergio Penasales gave the museum its unique geometric shape.
Aside from the historical relics, the museum also hosts art exhibits from both local and international artists. Iloilo Cultural Research Foundation manages the upkeep of the museum. The foundation maintains the cultural education, research and tourism by showcasing the rich cultural history of Western Visayas.
