The 10 Best Things to Do in León, Nicaragua in 2025

"Housed in two buildings, the Museo de Arte Fundación Ortiz-Gurdián is the biggest art institution in the city and features early pre-Columbian works, Spanish colonial religious artifacts, and modern and contemporary Nicaraguan pieces; it takes a few hours to explore, both buildings have lovely courtyard gardens to relax in, and my favorite painting there was El Retiro by Mauricio Gomez Jaramillo." - Matthew Kepnes

This is the most complete and amazing collection of Central American Art imaginable. The entry is 3,50USD and worth every penny. Bring some time to indulge yourself in this incredible museum.

An art oasis in the heart of Leon. I love the exposition in this beautiful colonial antique mansion. A wonderful blend of the classics and modern art.

This is an excellent art museum . Well laid out with some very interesting pieces. It's a joy to visit and would rank among one of the nicest art museums I have visited... and ive seen a few .

A nice museum, bigger than I thought it would be. Has real paintings, lithographs, icons, and bronze sculptures. It surprised me that the Picasso's were lithographs, that was interesting. A mix of old through modern art. I would recommend this museum if you like art, but don't expect it to be on par with a large museum. It was very hot inside, bring water. There are seats in some areas to rest.

If you have any interest in Art at all, this is one of the best museums. I’ve seen in central America. Rooms and rooms full of Latin American artists followed by early Christian and a plethora of 20th century artists from around the world. It ends with some very thought-provoking central American contemporary pieces.

Fabulous art museum with lots of contemporary art by Latin American (especially Central American) artists. They had some a few pieces by Picasso and Warhol too which I was not expecting. It's also a gorgeous colonial building and it's much bigger than I expected. I happily spent 2 hours there with only a $3 entrance fee.
