This museum is housed in the Chapultepec Castle. Tour the former home of Emperor Maximilian and his wife, Carlota, and gaze at a wealth of relics from their brief reign and beyond. Old carriages, armor and artifacts are interesting, but just walking through the luxurious castle grounds is worth the trip. The museum can be crowded on Sunday, when many Mexico City families spend the afternoon in the park. Daily except Monday 9 am-5 pm. M$48 adults. Free on Sunday and to seniors older than 60, Mexican teachers and students with valid ID. Tours in English available. Chapultepec Park, Mexico City. Phone 5061-9215.
