Tour description

Museo del Orocontaining objects made of gold, pottery, and stone by the region's inhabitants before the time of Columbus. This house also lets you explore stories of the past and present from this corner of Colombia's Caribbean region.
In four thematic galleries, indeed, the Museo del Oro Tairona - Casa de la Aduana invites you to reflect on and talk about the lives and stories of people from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta and Magdalena province over the last 2,000 years.
The Pre-Hispanic societies gallery describes the societies that inhabited the Sierra Nevada during the Nahuange (200 to 900 A.D.) and Tairona (900 to 1600 A.D.) Periods: their pottery and their metalwork, the way they lived and how they were buried, their ceremonies and rituals, as revealed by archaeological research.
The People of Magdalena gallery is a journey through present-day Magdalena province and its people. The visitor has an encounter with the Kogui, Wiwa, Wíntukua, and Kankuamo indigenous groups of the Sierra Nevada, with the Ettes of the Ariguaní grasslands, and with the river and sea fishermen. It exalts the varied facets of life in Santa Marta, extols the Caiman Man festival in Plato and its Ciénaga Caiman counterpart, and revels in the flavors and wisdom of our cultural diversity.
