A journey through Evita's life
The Evita Museum tells visitors the story of Eva Perón’s life through photographs, videos, and contemporary documents. At first, visitors are transported back in time so they can gain an understanding of Argentina during this period and the context in which Evita grew up.
The story of her life after meeting Juan Perón is then told, as well as the beginning of her activities after becoming First Lady. From this moment, one can see how Evita was involved in helping the disadvantaged and creating homes for Argentina’s homeless population. The sadder side of the museum then takes center stage as the arrival of Evita’s illness and premature death is recounted.
