Although the signs in the Museum do not indicate that these instruments are original to the Missionaries, that is the suggestion..and most of the instruments do have signs that date them to late-19th century and Mexican-Indian periods.
On display are a cello, drums, a bass bow, a violin, a harp, a flute and look for the mandolin made with the shell of an armadillo!
