Museo Nacional de Arte Decorativo (National Museum of Decorative Art)

French architect Rene Sergent, who designed some of the grandest mansions in Buenos Aires, envisioned and developed this museum. The building's 18th-century French design provides a classical setting for the diverse decorative styles represented within. Breathtaking sculptures, paintings, and furnishings round off the collection. The Museo de Arte Oriental (Museum of Eastern Art) displays art, pottery, and engravings on the first floor of the building.

Av. del Libertador 1902.Phone: 11/4801-8248.Open: Mon-Fri 2-8pm; Sat-Sun 11am-7pm.Admission $1.
