Pre-Columbian and Indigenous Art Museum (MAPI)

MAPI: Ancient Pottery, Indigenous Masks & Brutalist Design

Walk through a massive 19th-century building in Ciudad Vieja to find high-contrast displays of pre-colonial ceramics and textiles. It is less about dry history and more about the aesthetic of ancient design. Spend an hour exploring the permanent collection before hitting the museum shop for actual quality local crafts. Skip the heavy reading and focus on the visual storytelling of the masks. Grab a coffee at the onsite cafe—the vault-like architecture makes it a top-tier chill spot.

Address: 25 de Mayo 279, Montevideo, Departamento de Montevideo, 11200
