Museo de Oro
Museo de Oro, Xavier University
An anthropology museum on the Xavier University campus, displaying archaeological artifacts from northern Mindanao and indigenous cultural collections.
The museum was founded by Xavier University, a Jesuit institution, and is one of the oldest museums in Mindanao. Its collection includes pottery, burial jars and ancient ornaments excavated at the Huluga site, as well as clothing, musical instruments and household items of the indigenous peoples of the Bukidnon Plateau. It helps visitors understand the history behind the name 'City of Gold'. The museum is small; about an hour is enough. Entry is cheap, and opening hours follow the university's announcements.
