Frida Kahlo Museum
About This Museum
The Frida Kahlo Museum, better known as La Casa Azul, is the vibrant blue house where the artist was born, lived, and died. Stepping through its cobalt walls feels less like entering a formal gallery and more like walking directly into her world. You can almost hear the echoes of her tumultuous life with Diego Rivera in the sun-drenched courtyard and intimate studios. It’s a deeply personal pilgrimage that connects you to the very source of her pain and passion.
Collection Highlights
Beyond iconic self-portraits like 'Frida y la Cesárea', you'll find her personal effects: pre-Columbian jewelry, traditional Tehuana dresses hanging in her closet, and the haunting corsets she painted while bedridden. Don't miss her folk art collection or the kitchen, a riot of yellow tiles and traditional pottery that feels utterly alive.
Visitor Information
It's in the lovely Coyoacán neighborhood, a world away from Mexico City's bustle. Book your tickets online well in advance—this is one of the city's most popular spots, and lines are legendary. Spend a morning here, then wander over to the nearby market for a coffee.
Architecture & Building
A quintessential Mexican colonial home with a brilliant cobalt facade, built around a lush central courtyard filled with pre-Hispanic artifacts and native plants.
