The Malvinas Argentinas Museum, located in the city of Río Gallegos, is a cultural and educational space dedicated to preserving and transmitting the historical memory of the Malvinas War and its significance for the Argentine people. This museum, which is located in the province of Santa Cruz, not only seeks to honor the fallen in the 1982 conflict, but also to raise awareness about the importance of national sovereignty in the South Atlantic.

The museum tour offers an immersive experience that combines historical objects, photographs, documents, and oral accounts of war veterans. Among its exhibits are original uniforms, weapons, letters and belongings of soldiers who participated in the conflict. In addition, it has an interactive section that allows visitors to learn in detail about the key events of the war, as well as the geographical and strategic aspects of the Falkland Islands.

One of the most emotional spaces of the museum is the sector dedicated to local heroes, where tribute is paid to the Santa Cruz soldiers who were part of the conflict. Documentaries and testimonies are also screened that invite reflection on the impact of the war on families and Argentine society.
