Mulaló is a village of Yumbo municipality, founded in 1910. The Mulaló Museum is located there. One of the most important reasons that prompted the creation of this place was the Simón Bolívar lodging in the Mulaló Hacienda in the 20th century.

In this place the culture and history of a black community that inhabited this region is shown all together. The main objective of the museum is to strengthen the identity through the histories and manners ​​of the community through the reconstruction of memories from the past, which pretend to be agents of change and social transformation.

Knowledge about the ancestral roots of this beautiful region is a valuable tool that guides new generations in the process of recognition and self-determination. In this magnificent place that has been built collectively by the community, the quality of life of its inhabitants has been improved since it is a source of inspiration and progress.

This museum houses a quite elaborate and diverse exhibition. You can find archaeological collections, historical collections and multiple cultural manifestations of this multiracial region.
