Museo Historico Nacional

The National Historical Museum's mission is to generate in visitors a reflection on the identity of Uruguayans and to publicize the multiple historical processes that led to the formation of the country.

It seeks to focus its efforts on the enhancement and access of its heritage with the aim of contributing to democratization and social participation.

The Institution must promote educational actions aimed at developing the responsibility of Uruguayans for their heritage to enjoy it, increase it and preserve it for the next generations and project it towards all peoples in the key of cultural multiversity
