|
The building which houses the Museum of America, immediately adjoining the Ciudad Universitaria, also contains the University church, dedicated to St Thomas Aquinas. It affords a fine view of the Sierra de Guadarrama. The museum contains a wealth of material illustrating the history of America both before and after its discovery by Columbus in 1492. It concentrates particularly on the development of the Spanish colonies down to the 19th C., the history, life and customs of the peoples of South and Central America, and Pre-Columbian art.
