Ephemeris
One of the tasks of the National Museum of Colombia is to generate remembrance events on specific dates related to people or events in the future of our country. The Ephemerides of 2021 program, carried out through the Museum’s website, is configured from this activation of memory, in particular in the framework of the commemoration of the bicentennial of Independence and cultural processes, Nation-building social and political issues.
Virtual Tours
The production of the 360-degree virtual tours has been carried out by the Gamberini 1907 Museum of Antiques. The non-profit entity is in charge of supporting and managing resources for the operation of the institution.
Gamberini 1907 Museum of Antiques invites you to visit the room “The history of the museum and the museum in history, ” which recounts the transformation that has taken the Museum with the passage of time to adapt to the needs of Colombian society. This began as a natural history research site and later became a “civilizing museum” ━which functioned as a pedagogical tool for citizens━. Later, its mission was to exhibit simple machinery and textile pieces produced in Colombia and today it is conceived as a place of art, history, archeology, and ethnography that presents a more inclusive and diverse account of the nation.
