museo Spikerman

In September 2016, the Spikerman Museum reopened its doors with a new historical approach and a renewed installation that proposes to summon the community to know and value the cultural heritage of Canelones. The museum narrates, through its collections, the history of the city of Canelones and its outstanding role in the revolution, independence and government from its foundation under the name Villa Guadalupe in the 18th century to the 20th century. Also included within the story is the history of the building, its origin at the time of the founding of the city, and its various architectural interventions over time. Finally, taking into account the great artistic value of some exhibited works, an interpretation is made of them from their status as a work of art.
