Regional Historical Museum
About This Museum
You'd never guess this unassuming building in the middle of Patagonia holds the key to a Welsh colony. It feels more like stepping into someone's well-kept family home than a stuffy institution. Inside, you're immediately pulled into the personal stories of the Welsh pioneers who settled this arid land against all odds. The air even smells faintly of old paper and wood, making the past feel incredibly close.
Collection Highlights
Look for the delicate lace and traditional teapots that speak to their cherished customs, and don't miss the old farming tools—you'll marvel at how they managed to cultivate this tough terrain.
