Barranco - Pedro de Osma Colonial Art Museum

(Local Name: Museo de Arte Colonial Pedro de Osma) The Museo de Arte Colonial Pedro de Osma is a private museum housed in the Palacio de Osma, a historic mansion in Barranco. The mansion is actually two white buildings, built higher than the street level, which was a sign of lordship when it was constructed in 1906. The home belonged to Don Pedro de Osma Gildemeister, who dedicated his life to collecting art.

The museum houses an exceptional collection of colonial art from around Peru, including Cusco, Arequipa, and Ayacucho. Pieces include paintings, sculptures, metalwork, stonework, silver, and furniture.

The Museo de Arte Colonial Pedro de Osma is located just south of the Parque Municipal on Av. San Pedro de Osma.
