iConceived by Diego Rivera and built from the lava rock of the Xitle eruption, the Anahuacalli opened in 1964 with Juan O'Gorman completing the design. Its dark, Mesoamerican-inspired halls display around 2,000 of the roughly 39,000 pre-Hispanic pieces Rivera collected, alongside his studio with preparatory sketches for major murals. A 2021 expansion added galleries for contemporary art, and the grounds protect a 28,000 m² ecological reserve.

Indigenous Art: some 2,500 Mesoamerican works from Diego Rivera's own collection, from carved stone deities to everyday vessels, shown as art rather than archaeology.

Ecological Space: the museum's protected reserve on the Pedregal lava field left by the Xitle volcano about 1,700 years ago, with native flora and fauna.
