The museum exhibits early legislation, the office of the chief judge, historical ceramics, military weapons, and all types of Taino artifacts.

The museum located in a building constructed in the early 1500s is well laid out. The audio guides available in several languages are very helpful. There are original journal entries from Columbus...

Some interesting exhibits for an overview of Santo Domingo’s history and some local flavor. The building itself is the star. Of course most info is Spanish only but rudimentary English audio guide...

Museum of the Royal Houses is the must to see when you visit Santo Domingo. If you keen to learn interesting fact and hungry for rich history this is the place to visit. You will get a headset guide to listen history in your language of every piece and corner of the museum. Beautiful and highly recommended.
