What To Expect
Museo – Taller de Casapueblo
Casapueblo is a building constructed by the Uruguayan artist Carlos Páez Vilaró. It is located in Punta Ballena, 8.1 miles (13 kilometers) from Punta del Este, Uruguay. It was originally a summer house and workshop of the artist. It now houses a museum, an art gallery, a cafeteria and a hotel. It was the permanent residence of its creator, where he worked and spent his last days. In the main dome of Casapueblo are the museum and workshop where you can see part of the work of the late painter, potter, sculptor, muralist, writer, composer and builder Carlos Páez Vilaró. It has four exhibition halls: Nicolás Guillén Room, Pablo Picasso Room, Rafael Squirm Room, José Gómez Sicre Room, projection room, the Mermaid Terrace, Hippocampus Viewpoint, Taberna del Rayo Verde, coffee shop and boutique. Every afternoon since 1994, the Ceremony of the Sun is performed on the terraces of the museum. Minutes before sunset, the artist's voice from a recording dedicates a poem to the sun to bid the sun farewell.

4.00The museum exhibits works by the artist Carlos Paez, in a surreal and impressionistic style. The house has a series of levels combined with narrow passageways. It has a café and a beautiful view especially at sunset.
Great experience...

5.00Excellent from reception, due to a problem we could not go on the stipulated day, we spoke with Karina from the museum and kindly passed the visit the next day, allowed us to enter 2 days in a row, impeccable
Not necessarily to buy in advance

2.00We visited mid-summer and there was no line. We definitely suggest visiting as the artist’s body of work is quite moving. However, we suggest buying the ticket there as there is no need for a portion of the entry fee to go into Viator’s pocket.
Mandatory visit

5.00It was amazing, for the ease of acquisition, price, option of refilling. All perfectly thought out on the user / customer experience. Already in Casapueblo, undisputedly one of the most beautiful places in Uruguay and Punta Ballena/Del Este. Super recommend.
