A couple of days prior our visit we contacted the museum and asked them to schedule for us a guide. The attention and service was magnificent and efficient. When we got there, our guide (unfortunately I don’t remember her name), was a really smart Peruvian woman who answered all of our questions with no hesitation. She was a really kind young woman. I would recommend to get a guide to understand more deeply this museum.

We did not know about this museum, but the family is a rich mining family for over 200 years. The house is gorgeous. the rear building was the dining room, and has lots of family history and portraits. There is an interesting presentation of silver, but large parts are not that old. The religious paintings from the 17 and 18th centuries are exquisite, but not my faves. We bought a combination ticket to this and the MATE photo museum which is right down the block in another mansion.

Basically a museum of sacred art, beautiful pieces! The structure of the cottage that houses it is very special, super well-maintained internal and external areas, in a calm environment, could even have a cafeteria in the external area. I liked mto, worth it since the pieces exhibited in the museum, such as the lustres, glass windows and internal structures

And then you will see 2 adjacent structures housing art. I failed to notice this until too late. The art collection in the main building is all religious, most very old, and not my thing
The attraction for me was the building itself-tall ceilings and wonderful stained glass windows and beautiful decorative trim

This museum has a lot to offer. The first building houses European style art with local history. The building in the back offers more traditional art but also includes furniture and other artifacts. The next building to the side houses ancient Peruvian items both pre and post Columbian. The building and the grounds are stunning. It is a beautiful setting and well worth a stop. Two hours should be plenty. Don't be in a hurry or you may miss something.

Nice place located in a nice district like Barranco. The architecture is spectacular and the space is very spacious. The artwork inside is fine but nothing shocking, the most beautiful is the silver hall where there is a nice collection of coins.

While at Museo Larco you will learn about the ancient Peruvian roots, here you will complete your knowledge of this civilization, getting to know more about some of the prestigious families that still lives here.The house and gardens are beautiful! When you are in Barranco, save some time to visit this museum and also its neighbor museum MATE!

This museum is a jewel. We were approached by an English-speaking docent in the front of the house. She was very knowledgeable and narrated our tour through the house and its amazing collection in impeccable English. Don't miss this gorgeous place!

We came upon this little museum by accident, but enjoyed it greatly. Our lovely tour guide gave us a personal and thorough lesson (in perfect English) in the art displayed and we learned about how the native peoples blended Catholicism and European art with their own ancient culture. I especially enjoyed seeing the original Spanish sketches next to paintings by the Cusco artists who added their own secret touches, and the tabletop religious dioramas filled with detail.

This is a really good museum. Just colonial pintures. The building is an historic one and the location is in the bohemian block of Barranco.

What is the distance in miles and travel time between Miraflores and Osma Museum in Barranca?
Written March 8, 2019
I just saw this question so better late than never? Miraflores is only a mile or so away. Walkable if you’re adventurous or you can catch an Uber or a bus. The museum is lovely and worth visiting. In fact, I stayed in Barranco? much quieter than Miraflores and quite charming.
