ChocoMuseo

ChocoMuseo sits on 4a Calle Poniente, just steps from Antigua’s central park. You can identify this place by the scent of roasting cacao that often drifts onto the street. It operates as both a small museum and a working factory, dedicated to the history of cacao in Guatemala. Inside, visitors find displays detailing how the ancient Maya cultivated the plant and used the seeds as currency or in ritual ceremonies, long before chocolate became the sweetened confection recognized today.
