Museo de la Revolucion Mexico City

Beneath the imposing Monument of the Revolution is the Museo Nacional de la Revolución (Museum of the Revolution). This large museum comprises of three sections; the building of the Legislative Palace (which incomplete form became the Monument of the Revolution), an extensive section detailing the history of Mexico from 1857 through to 1917 and a temporary exhibition of various independence memorabilia.

The construction of the Legislative Palace will hold the most draw for visitors but unfortunately there are few descriptions in English. Many of the revolutionary exhibits are pictures, images or documents that without the explanatory text hold minimal interest.
