The museum moved to Chapultepec Castle, Mexico City, in 1941, opening in 1944. By the late 20th century, the museum housed more than 150,000 items of clothing, documents, flags, jewelry, weapons, and other objects relating to Mexico's social and cultural history. Among its holdings were a battle standard used by the conquistador Hernán Cortés and an 18th-century sculpture, “Virgin with Child,” attributed to the artist Luisa Roldán, who was Spanish royal sculptor to King Charles II. |
