Let’s start our journey!

We stand now in the University’s first building, in the Jesuit Block. This site was included in the World Heritage List by the United Nations for Education, Science and Culture Organization (UNESCO). It is also listed a as Site of Memory that bears witness to the history of the slave trade and slavery.

In this Museum we aim to bring to life the history of the National University of Córdoba. Through our halls, we may learn how the university has changed over the centuries, from its origin in the first quarter of the 17th Century up to our days.
