Museum of Antioquia

Very nice Museum with lots of art work 🖼 from colombian 🇨🇴 artist Fernando Botero, Francisco Cano, Ana Mercedes Hoyos and other artists from South America. The building is a three level plus basement, so it takes about 2.5 hours to fully capture all of the art work 🖼. There are staircase and elevators 🛗 on the front and back of the Museum. They have a restaurant, book store and souvenir shop. Restrooms 🚻 are only on the first floor and on one side of the building. I recommend visiting this Museum at least once. 👍👍

The Museum of Antioquia is a beautiful and impressive space with three floors full of art to explore. It’s quite big, and you can find a wide range of styles—from modern pieces to older works—each offering a unique perspective through the eyes of different artists. Entry is reasonably priced, and the flow of visitors makes it comfortable to walk through; it wasn’t overcrowded when I went, but it wasn’t empty either, so you still feel the energy of the place. You really get the chance to take your time and enjoy the exhibits. Highly recommend if you’re in Medellín!

Foreigner price is 40000 cop just FYI. There were great amount of paintings which I really enjoyed a lot. Lot of the foot traffic was on the Botero exhibit on the third floor but my favorite was the works of Francisco Antonio Cano Cardona exhibit located on the first floor (As of Aug 2025). I actually really enjoyed the museum itself and wish that I could give it five stars but I had to take one star away since the museum is located in a pretty shady area. And it is actually located inside a square so you have to walk a bit to get the museum from your uber and vice versa. With me sticking out like a sore thumb as a tourists, I was approached by lady of the night, a drug seller, and some homeless person literally all within half block walk to my Uber. "No, esta bien, gracias" was repeated over and over by me until I was able to get in my Uber.

It housed two floors of exhibits. Each corner gives a different perspective from the artist eyes. I enjoyed my walk through and encouragement you to do the same if you enjoy creative expression.

It's a large museum with various of art forms. Really interesting display and there was 3 floors available. It's definitely worth the visit as it focuses on colombian artists, especially Botero

It is one of the best museums I have ever been to. It is not too big to get you all tired. Nonetheless, it has everything, from Botero to classical, modern, and vanguardist art. I loved how art from past centuries was shown next to modern ones, capturing the same subject—a special mention to the Dogma section. The coffee place inside on the down floor was amazing.

Excellent permanent collection of paintings and sculptures, especially Botero's masterpieces. I didn't expect such rich collection so I was delighted and enjoyed every minute spent there. Museum guardians were very kind. Veoma je lep restoran u prizemlju muzeja sa veoma pristojnim cenama i sjajnim pogledom na Boterov trg. Uživajte.

Interesting collection of contemporary art. There are permanent and temporary exhibitions. It has a large collection of works by Medellín native Fernando Botero and Pedro Nel Gómez. Nice chronological photos of the city most important events.
