I only went for the exhibit on the caricaturas (editorial cartoons.) Even without understanding Spanish you can grasp so much from the illustrations. This is a free museum and worth a stop if you're in the Centro Historico.

Free entry! The main attraction for me though is the view from the rooftop. There is also a small cafe at the rooftop.

I love this place, a gallery of the mexican popular art, most specifically cinema and cartoons documents, sculptures and paintings. Also, this place have a terrace where you can see part of the historic center of Mexico City. Colorful and nostalgic place, thanks to the writer Carlos Monsivais (RIP) for this amazing opportunity to see all their work.

A great museum always with a great exibition! And the best, is for free, Wednesday to Monday, from 10h to 18h. Going there, don't miss the visit to the Cafe and bookstore and the roof top. Has a nice view. The only thing is, the roof top isn't wheelchair accessible. The rest of the museum is. Great place to go by yourself, with friends, family or the special one. If you are in Mexico City don't let to go there.

This museum is a must see in Mexico City! They are multiple floors of different exhibits. There is also a rooftop that has a coffee bar and gift shop. Entrance was free, but you have to let them hold your bag once you get to the stairwell. Everyone was very nice and welcoming. I loved the small art they had that was very detailed. I highly recommend and would visit again with friends.

Amazing museum with rich musical history. This museum is definitely the place to visit if you are interested in Carlos Monsiváis' personal musical collection. Musical pieces are detailed with great information and the place is really wide which allows great mobility and for many visitors to be in the same place without feeling claustrophobic. They have a rec area were you can enjoy planned activities and have fun. They also have a library with a great variety of musical books and other interests that are mentioned in the museum's expo. And lastly, at the very top they have a terrace were you can sit and have a bite. They offer coffee and other snacks to enjoy. It has a great view of Calle Madero.

Visiting this museum has been by far one of the best experiences in my visits to Mexico City downtown. The place is not just free but conveniently located 2 blocks from the main plaza (called Zocalo) and unlike other museums, this museum opens on Mondays. By the time I went there there was an exhibition called "bibliofilia mexicana" which enlightened me about Mexican intellectual production through history. It got me by surprise that there were serious intellectuals in Mexico in the past, with really complete and good productions, a fact that is not much highlighted about Mexico...I would also recommend to visit the terrace of the museum, where you can enjoy a great view of the surroundings. There is a coffee place on the terrace and also a small bookstore.

Great place to go and see artists of many kind, some of them include Miguel Covarrubias, Lola Álvarez Bravo, José María Lupercio, Agustín Jiménez and my personal favourite Leopoldo Méndez.

Not only that but it also includes a nice rooftop view with a cafeteria and mini library.

Always a nice experience to visit this museum.
This time we went for the night of museums and enjoyed the Mexican cinema exhibition.
It was so interesting, fun and enriching exhibition. Not crowded so we were able to enjoy every piece with calm.

the permanent and rotating expositions are always worthwhile as well as the view from the terraza, which has activities for kids, good coffee and a gift shop which sells great prints from mexican visual artists at an accessible price

the place also has a comfortable reading room with more titles that you could shake a stick at which makes it a perfect place to wait out for the night to set in and dive into the centro histórico nightlife

The museum is nice but the Café Kato is worth a visit. A great view over the historic center.

A small museum on a few floors, quite interesting. It was also spacious so was nice being there. There is a rooftop with a nice view where you can have a drink

Another nice little joint. A museum with a cafe on the roof. The place to take the family photo.

Highly recommended. It's free, located in a beautiful building with rooftop access for a great view of Mexico city's beautiful historic downtown. The museum's exhibit too contains beautiful prints and lithographs with a library too. Definitely a place not to miss.
