Casa de la Independencia Museum is the very house where Paraguay's independence from Spain was secretly planned in 1811. Visitors can explore period rooms with original furnishings, weapons, and documents that evoke the conspiratorial atmosphere of the era. The museum's courtyard and architecture reflect typical 18th-century Paraguayan colonial style, making it a tangible link to the nation's founding moment.
