The Casa de la Independencia Museum, located in Asunción, Paraguay was inaugurated on May 14, 1965 and showcases pieces of history that date back to the independence of the country. In 1811, precisely in the night of the May 14, a group of brave Paraguayans came out of this house to declare the independence of Paraguay. Located on the corner of the streets Presidente Franco and 14 de Mayo, it is stood out by its marked colonial style, besides its significant transcendence. It is a national monument which has a great historical significance. Between its walls, the emancipation from the Spanish domain was planned in a silent and brave manner. == History == The house where the Museum is located nowadays was built in 1772 by the Spanish settler Antonio Martínez Sáenz, married to the Paraguayan Petrona Caballero de Bazán. The walls were constructed with adobe; with thatched roof and its framework was made of bamboo and palm wood. The married couple Martínez Sáenz-Caballero de Bazán had two children Pedro Pablo and Sebastián Antonio. Both brothers inherited the house, used it as a joint ownership with their wives Carmen Speratti and Nicolasa Marín, respectively. Besides the two married couples, two young ladies, Facunda Speratti and Virginia Marín, sisters of Carmen and Nicolasa, respectively, lived in the house. The threads of the native history started to interweave around this family. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Casa de la Independencia Museum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
