Lonely Planet review

The Museo para la Identidad Nacional offers a tech-savvy journey through Honduras' cultural and national formation. The museum is housed in the former Palace of Ministries, built in 1880 as a hospital, and uses the latest audio-visual technology, including a virtual theater, to bring its displays to life.

Tegucigalpa's newest museum is intended to encapsulate the whole of Honduran history, from pre-Columbian civilization to the present day. Former President Maduro rushed to inaugurate the museum before he left office, even though it was far from complete.
