On July 26, 2002, fifty years to the day after Evita’s death, her grandniece, Cristina Alvarez Rodriguez, inaugurated the Evita Museum in Buenos Aires.

Evita, an icon whose historical importance spans two centuries, now has her own museum.

The Evita Museum is housed in a mansion constructed for the Carabassa family during the first decade of the 20th century. Architect Estanislao Pirovano gave the mansion its formal image which combines elements from both the Plateresque and Italian Renaissance styles.

This beautiful building was declared a National Historical Monument in 1999.

Museum Visit — Thursday, September 18, 2014

Posted on September 5, 2014 by tq

Join us for a visit to Palacio Paz. We will take a guided visit in English to see one of the most beautiful places in Buenos Aires.

Visiting the Palace is a unique experience because it was the biggest and the most luxurious private residence in town. If we add the huge artistic richness and the anecdotes of that period, the visitor gets amazed. Walking along the ballrooms takes us back to a magnificent period of Argentina.

If Buenos Aires was the Paris of South America, the Palacio Paz is the greatest example of French architecture in the city.

Please RSVP before Tuesday Sept. 16 to
