Interesting to see how Argentina views the "war". For incorrect reasons many people feel the Falklands should be under Argentina control. Unless the history I read is rubbish, Argentina has no more right to claim the islands than Spain or even France. I suggest people Google and read the facts. Britain did NOT throw anyone out in 1833 by the way. But whatever, the war was a travesty. For Galteri to send troops, conscripted boys too, to the islands to "take them back" was a disgrace. Did he really think Britain would do nothing? What message would that give? Yet everyone blames the British for the deaths of those boys and men. Britain was defending its people. Right or wrong. Argentina military would have done the same. Then the Argentine military planted thousands of mines. Why? They locked up over 120 residents in a small building with little to eat or drink for 2 months. Why? Destroying radios so there would be no contact. Why? Winning the hearts of the locals? Such a shame the Argentine people can't see that Galteri sacrificed those men to make himself look good. Thanks to him over 900 decent young men, British and Argentina died. For what? A little island. And then he got thrown out anyway.

Interesting museum. Basically all in Spanish, though. But you can see pictures and other stuff that dont really need words. The most beautiful part was the letters between warriors and their families. I missed to read some from the English warriors too, but I understand that they want to show that their on Argentina's side on the war, so the museum isnt as neutral as I would expect. War is sad for everyone, be them Argentinian, British, or all the flora and fauna living around their conflict areas. One thing that I didn't like much were the staff talking in the back room, as I could hear them and that was making it difficult to focus on reading. But I like the guidance provided by them and I thank them for their volunteer work. Worth visiting the museum!

A really interesting museum about the Malvinas War. Run by volunteers, with many artefacts, models and letters. The volunteer when we visited was so helpful and friendly and explained the exhibits in English. The information is written in Spanish, but they have Wi-Fi so you can translate with the photo translator option on the Google translate app. Don't forget to donate when you visit!

Excelente museo. Compartir con nosotros gran parte de nuestra historia, elementos reales y maquetas de vehículos, aeronaves y barcos presentes en la guerra. Exponen diferentes situaciones con fotos reales. Realmente se me puso la piel de gallina. Recomendable! Nos atendieron muy cordialmente!

Excelente museo con una gran cantidad de maquetas muy detalladas (hechas todas por un veterano de la Guerra de Malvinas) y muchos otros objetos. El personal es muy amable y es muy interesante charlar con ellos. Al momento de mi visita el día 30/08/17 no cobraban entrada. Recomiendo que lo visiten y que vayan con tiempo.

Um lindo resgate histórico da guerra das Malvinas, com maquetes, artefatos históricos, cartas e com um guia muito atencioso. Vale muito a pena visitar!
