Crossing the historical memory museum of La Pintada

Once a museum of memory the history of La Pintada It was located in Rio Hato. At that time, he was in a situation of complete abandonment and lack of interest on the part of the authorities.

Since then, the museum has had little state support. In fact, the museum was created on the initiative of a non-profit foundation.

The foundation is made up of people interested in culture, communities of social interest and activities in the interest of the common good.

Tourist activity in province of Cocle It is very important and the foundation for promoting construction was based on this museum in Río Hato.

In its beginnings, the museum was considered to house a room of birds from the region, a geological area, a room of pre-Hispanic history, a small colonial viewing room and, of course, the most important part, which was a part of local history where what was what was the history of the Río Hato military base.

Visitors were expected to feel the influence of the bases and General Torrijos’ vision of building not only the base but also the construction of the Tomas Herrera School in Cocles’ imagination.

One of the phrases the late General Torrijos and the reason for promoting the museum was “there is as much room here as there are beds to accommodate soldiers”.

The late General Torrijos knew there was none number of soldiers This is why he decides to promote the military school.

Taking advantage of this, it was believed that the people from the Tomás Herrera and Omar Torrijos Foundation would like the idea and so everyone became interested.

However, today the glass doors of the rooms were broken everywhere, the window at the front of the room is scatteredthe water seepage between the iron furniture and the iron screens located at the bottom gets water.

Also the air conditioner is not working It gets worse because the market is next door. The museum is full of cockroaches.

Then there are the doors a bathroom that has rotted and the toilet doesn’t work.

The worst thing is that the notice came to start renting the space. Many shocks and apathy of regional and local authorities towards culture.

This is how the crossing of the Río Hato Historical Memory Museum took place until, at the initiative of the Foundation, it was decided to move the museum to historical memory from Río Hata to La Pintada.
