==History== The museum space incorporates an old [[butcher shop]] and [[slaughterhouse]] from the beginning of the 17th century, whose last owners were the Bodega y Quadra y Mollinedo family. These facilities were discovered during excavations for the construction of a building in 2005. In 2012 the [[Ministry of Culture (Peru)|Ministry of Culture]] promoted the creation of the museum respecting the architecture of the old colonial house and its foundations.<ref name=Salas>{{Cite news |title=Fue una antigua carnicería y hoy es un museo de culto en el Centro de Lima |url=https://elcomercio.pe/vamos/consejos-de-viajes/fue-una-antigua-carniceria-y-hoy-es-un-museo-de-culto-en-el-centro-de-lima-noticia/ |last=Salas |first=Alejandro |date=2019-10-08 |work=[[El Comercio (Peru)|El Comercio]]}}</ref>
