Museo y Mercado Provincial de Artesanías
Promoting handicrafts from throughout the province, the Museo y Mercado Provincial de Artesanías is a likable little place. Ask the curator to explain things to you; you’ll be amazed at the intricacy of some of the work, like the hats made from tightly woven palm fibers. In December there are folk music performances in the garden.

Museo Histórico de Entre Ríos
Flaunting local pride, this modern museum on Plaza Alvear contains information on the short-lived Republic of Entre Ríos and the battle of Monte Camperos, as well as mate paraphernalia and numerous solid wooden desks and portraits of Urquiza. Much of it was the collection of a local poet.

Museo de Mate
This cheeringly idiosyncratic Museo de Mate is Paraná's most unusual. Thousands of pieces of mate paraphernalia fill the shelves, including the world's tallest and smallest mate gourds, and even some ornate pieces made in Germany, England and Austria.
