This museum is inside the impressive Centro Cultural Ernesto Che Guevara, which was completed in 2016 in time for the 50th anniversary of Che's death the following year. It contains a photo-documentary of events leading to the capture of Che and of the days immediately afterward, featuring objects and artifacts that belonged to the guerrilla group. There is also a copy of Che's diary detailing his time in Bolivia.
The museum is visited on the Ruta del Che City Tour.
