A few trips ago I was walking along Mercaderes in Old Havana on my way to the "Conde de Villanueva" to visit a friend. I noticed a museum that I hadn't seen before, it was the Ceramic museum. The place looked interesting from the outside and there was no charge to enter, so I did.
The pictures below are from my current visit. They appear to have permanent exhibits but the area I photographed is a display that changes. The art in these pictures is not the same as my previous visit a few months ago. The location was someone's mansion many years ago but as with many of these old houses, it's been converted into a museum.
Mercaderes is a lovely street with several diversions and a couple of nice restaurants. I would definitely recommend a walk along this road and step into the Ceramic museum if you happen to see it. You can easily spend 20-30 minutes in there if you visit the entire house.

Cada vez que viajo a mi pais, esa es mi ruta. Visito el Capitolio, recorro la calle Obispo, y luego sigo rumbo a la calle Habana para ir hasta Amargura que es donde vive mi hermana. Por supuesto que visito el Museo. Es algo digno de ver.
