Guests' reviews
The cabildo is so steeped in history and is an architectural gem. Such a pity that those who are responsible lack imagination to make more of what they have. It is not a lack of investment, but a lack of initiative or ability.
Very nice building of the old town hall, with the spirit of the colonial times. The museum itself is pretty small, but gives some idea about the history of Montevideo. Admission free.
A public building used as the government house during the colonial times of the Viceroyalty of the River Plate. Actually is used as a museum and houses the Historical Archive of the city.
Nothing special
Junto à Plaza Constitución, o Cabildo de Montevideo é um museu de visitação essencial para entender a fundação da cidade bem como foi se formando ao longo do tempo. O acervo está um pouco precário precisando de melhores cuidados. Mesmo assim, é possÃvel ter acesso aos principais fatos históricos da capital do Uruguai numa visitação relativamente rápida.
Un lindo lugar para conocer y saber más de la historia de Uruguay... Buena atención y explicaciones... Recomiendo !!!
Museu lindo, muito bem conservado e com exposições pertinentes. As explicações de cada obra em áreas visÃveis e todos os cômodos contavam com um monitor. Gostei muito!
