Museo de la Inquisición

Museo de la Inquisición

This is a quick jaunt back to the time of the Spanish Inquisition. Because the museum is free, it is worth visiting. The museum of the Peruvian constitution is also here. You are supposed to get a free guide, but there was not an English-speaking guide when we arrived, so we wandered around by ourselves. In addition, all of the exhibit signs are in Spanish. However, you can make out what things are pretty easily if you do not speak Spanish.

The exhibit includes wax works demonstrating inquisition tortures. You also walk through some old underground tunnels that were once holding cells. The climax of your visit is an actual inquisition chamber.
