Casa Museo Amado Nervo
About This Museum
Tucked away on a quiet, sun-drenched street in the heart of Tepic, the Casa Museo Amado Nervo is a beautiful surprise. This isn't some stuffy, impersonal institution; it's the actual childhood home of one of Mexico's most beloved poets. You can almost feel his presence wandering through the intimate, high-ceilinged rooms where he first put pen to paper. It’s a peaceful, deeply personal look into the life of a literary giant.
Collection Highlights
His original wooden writing desk takes center stage, but don't miss the touching personal letters and first editions of his work. My favorite part was the serene central courtyard—the perfect spot to sit and reflect, just as Nervo once did.
Visitor Information
It's easy to find at Zacatecas 284 in the centro, and entry is free (though a small donation is appreciated). Just double-check their opening hours before you go, as they can be limited.
Architecture & Building
The building is a classic example of a 19th-century Mexican hacienda-style home, with thick walls, rustic tile floors, and a wonderfully peaceful interior courtyard filled with plants.
