Originally the palace of Inca Roca, the foun- dations of thismuseum (cnr Hatunrumiyoc & Herrajes; admission S15 or with boleto religioso; h8-11am & 3-6pm Mon-Sat) were converted into a grand colonial residence and later became the archbishop’s palace. The beautiful mansion is now home to a religious-art collection notable for the accuracy of its period detail, and especially its insight into the interaction of indigenous peoples with the Spanish conquistadors. There are also some impressive ceilings and colonial-style tile work, though this is not original, having been replaced during the 1940s.
