The Museo de Charrería or Charrería Museum is located in the historic center of Mexico City on Izazaga Street, in an old monastery which was dedicated to the Virgin of Montserrat.[1] The monastery closed in 1821 and the building deteriorated significantly, until it was decided to rehabilitate it as a tourist attraction.
