The Botero Museum is housed in a restored colonial house in the La Candelaria neighbourhood in Bogota, the capital city of Colombia. The Colombian artist, Fernando Botero, donated a collection of 123 of his personal works along with 85 pieces from his private collection of paintings and sculptures by internationally renowned artists including Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Pablo Picasso, Renoir, Claude Monet, and Henri Matisse towards the founding of the museum, placing it among the five most important public international art collections in Latin America. The collection can be viewed at no charge every day, except Tuesdays, and a variety of activities including lectures, conferences, workshops, and guided tours are offered.
