During my 3 trips to Corpus Christi, I have made Many visits to the Selena museum. Being a Huge Selena Fan, this was a place I just HAD to visit, since I am from Ohio, I never got the chance to see Selena live. Finding the place was the hardest part, because there is no signs or anything out front,... more

My family and I visited the Selena Museum on a Friday afternoon. As other posters have mentioned, the museum does not have any signage on it at all. It is an unassuming beige building with metal siding and two large tour type buses in the front. The museum is across the street from a bright peach/yellow restaurant named Hermanos Solis... more

Selena is such a wonderful artist and my family wanted to remember her, so we took a trip to corpus to see the Museum, her grave, and house. We loved the museum and were surprised at how many of her personal belongings are housed so lovingly in the underground room of the studio. We recommend any family to go and... more

Bad part is you couldn't take photos...only in the lobby. I arrived there on March 29th, 2005 and stayed there until April 3rd. The first place I went to was the museum, b/c it was a block from my hotel. I was there for Selena's 10 year passing. I was in a speechless moment b/c when the lady asked me... more

My husband and I traveled to Coprus mainly to see Selena's Museum. At first we were surprised to see that there wasn't much to it on the outside. Infact we passed the building several times before figuring out that what we were seeing was infact the Museum. There were no signs..only an address and a picture painted of Selena on... more

In retrospect, when we went there (probably around 1999) I personally felt like it was closure for me because I never got to see her in person although I was a huge fan. It was so nice to see her dresses, awards and her car amongst everything else. Very nice. Nothing too fancy, just the one big room, plus a... more

We loved the museum. My daughter and father got their picture taken with Mr. Quintanilla, he drew a map for our family to eat at a local sea food restaurant, included where his daughter is buried, the Mirador La Flor statue and autographed it personally. The tour of the business was great, all the workers were very nice and gracious.... more
