Trujillo Toy Museum
About This Museum
People don't just come to the Trujillo Toy Museum to see toys; they come to touch a piece of living, playful history. You wander through rooms filled with everything from intricate German tin cars to beloved Peruvian folk dolls, each object whispering a story from a different era. It’s the sheer scope that captivates you—centuries of childhood condensed into one enchanting place. The experience feels less like a museum visit and more like a personal journey through the universal language of play.
Collection Highlights
Look for the remarkably preserved 19th-century European board games and the hauntingly beautiful pre-Columbian-era clay whistles, which are some of the oldest toys in the Americas.
Visitor Information
You'll find it at Jirón Independencia 705 in Trujillo; it's one of those places that's easy to miss from the outside, but stepping through the door feels like discovering a secret world.
Architecture & Building
The entire collection is displayed within the high-ceilinged, sun-drenched rooms of a beautifully preserved colonial mansion, where the creak of old floorboards adds to the charm.
