Delve into the history of Mexico like never before at the Museum of the Revolution Casa Villa, a mansion steeped in history that was home to the legendary General Francisco Villa.

This splendid residence, briefly occupied by the General when he was appointed governor in 1914, invites you to explore Villa’s life and his role in the Mexican Revolution.

This house, inhabited for many years by Villa’s wife, Doña Luz Corral, was gradually transformed into a museum thanks to her efforts to preserve and gather a vast collection of objects that belonged to her husband and the revolutionary movement he led.

Before her death, Doña Luz donated the house and its contents to the Ministry of Defense, ensuring that its historical and cultural legacy would be kept alive for future generations.
