Small university archaeology museum in central Trujillo showcasing Moche, Chimú and pre-Columbian ceramics, metalwork and textiles. Photograph richly decorated vessels, reliefs and the colonial-era courtyard and façade. Best visited weekday mornings for low crowds; late afternoon offers warm light in the courtyard. Check on flash/tripod restrictions and modest on-site parking; entry is modestly priced. Great for detail study of texture, color and cultural context in northern Peru.
