Santa Fe Museums
We've selected a few museums in Santa Fe, New Mexico that visitors will find quite interesting and included them on this page for reference. This City Different is famous for art, Pueblo Revival architecture, and museums. Art museums and museums focused on Southwestern history, often involving art of one sort or another, are the principal categories visitors will encounter. Fortunately most are clustered downtown within a short walk of the plaza or on Museum Hill's Camino Lejo. Most focus on arts and crafts. The museums on Museum Hill are focused on Native American Arts & Culture, Spanish Colonial Art, and International Folk Art. Downtown there are museums focused on art, crafts, and The Palace of the Governors is specifically oriented towards the region's history. Before you put on your walking shoes or drive up Museum Hill, take a moment and look at a Santa Fe museum in this collection. |
