Building in Cartagena, Colombia

The Palace of the Inquisition, also known as the Inquisition Palace, is an eighteenth-century the seat of the Holy Office of the Inquisition in Cartagena, now in modern Colombia. Completed in 1770, The building now houses the Museo Histórico de Cartagena, which presents exhibits on the city’s colonial and republican past and on the operation of the Holy Office in Cartagena. Alongside information on trials, imprisonment and autos-da-fé, the museum shows alleged Inquisition torture devices; however, many of these items appear to be modern replicas or generic “medieval” reconstructions, and there is little evidence that they were actually used by the tribunal in Cartagena.
