Private Tour Museum of Anthropology and Chapultepec Castle.

Castle Chapultepec. The Castillo de Chapultepec is a building located in the first section of the Chapultepec forest in Mexico City. Its origin dates back to the Viceroyalty of New Spain, when the viceroys used to frequent Chapultepec as a rest and recreation area. Bernardo de Gálvez ordered the start of its construction on August 16, 1785, in whose design Francisco Bambitelli and Manuel Agustín Mascaró participated.7 However, it was abandoned for a couple of decades until its acquisition by the City of Mexico in 1806 Until then, the palatial work was surrounded by wide foundation walls built of andesite. At the beginning of the 1840s the Heroic Military College established its headquarters in the castle, during which time the "Caballero Alto" keep was built . It had a significant role during the Battle of Chapultepec as part of the US intervention in Mexico in 1847, as it was "the last bastion of national defense," during which it suffered considerable damage to its structure. Miguel Miramón used it for the first time as a presidential residence in the late 1850s, until the second French intervention in Mexico. During the imperial transition, Maximiliano de Habsburgo and his wife Carlota inhabited the building "captivated by the beautiful views of the Valley of Mexico that could be appreciated from the place ”, and carried out a series of adjustments inspired by the Parisian rundbogenstil and neoclassical style, which gave it a symmetry similar to that of the European bourgeois precincts of that time.
