bat400 visited on 7th Sep 2018 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 5 Access: 5 A very fine museum, well laid out, sympathetic lighting and adequate signage in Spanish and English. The majority of the remains of royal tombs discovered at Sipan are here, with the finds displayed separately from a recreation with models of the tomb as uncovered.
The primary display is a recreation of "El Señor de Sipán" (Lord of Sipán) tomb (ca. 700 CE from the Moche period) discovered in 1987. The Museum is in Lambayeque Town, Lambayeque.
