About This Museum

This isn't your typical grand museum; it's a pilgrimage site for fans of vallenato music, set in the humble family home of its most legendary troubadour, Diomedes Díaz. You walk through the same rooms where his mother, Doña Elvira, lived and where the singer himself found inspiration. The air feels thick with memory, almost as if a guitar riff might drift from the next room. It’s an intimate, deeply personal look at the man behind the myth.

Collection Highlights

You'll find his iconic stage outfits, well-worn guitars, and gold records lining the walls. But the real treasures are the personal items—family photos, handwritten letters, and everyday objects that tell a more human story than any album ever could.

Visitor Information

It's a small house in a Valledupar neighborhood, so don't expect a sprawling complex. Just ring the bell; the staff are often family friends who share stories with genuine warmth. Go with respect—you're essentially a guest in their home.

Architecture & Building

A simple, single-story residential house with a white facade and terracotta tiles, typical of the region's modest mid-20th century homes.
