Casa Gorordo Museum Tourism

Casa Gorordo Museum is located in Cebu City, the Philippines, within the historic Parian district. It is a house originally built in the mid-19th century, home to the first Filipino Bishop of Cebu, Juan Gorordo (1862-1934). A fine example of Spanish colonial architecture, this museum showcases the elegant and affluent Filipino lifestyle during that period. Preserved to retain its historical integrity, it features antique furniture, religious relics, and various household items reflective of Spanish colonial and Chinese influences. The museum also provides an in-depth look at Cebuano culture and history through its various exhibits and multimedia presentations. The upstairs living quarters have been carefully maintained to reflect the typical lifestyle of the Gorordo family, while the ground floor hosts curated exhibits that rotate throughout the year. The lush garden and courtyard feature native plants and provide a picturesque outdoor space for visitors to enjoy.
