Museo del Oro, Bogotá

Museo del Oro, the Banco de la Republica's (Colombia's central bank) Gold Museum in Bogota, Colombia, displays an extraordinary selection of its pre-Hispanic goldwork collection - the biggest in the world. Together with other pottery, stone, shell, wood and textile archaeological objects, these items testify to the life and thought of different societies which inhabited what is now known as Colombia before contact was made with Europe.

You will find other permanent exhibitions of the Gold Museum in your visit to other Colombian cities: Santa Marta, Cartagena, Cali, Armenia, Pasto, and Leticia.
