The Historical Museum of the Mexican Revolution in the city of Chihuahua, Mexico is housed in the former estate of General Francisco Villa and his widow, Sra Maria Luz Corral de Villa. The house and its extensive collection of Villa memorabilia, as well as souvenirs and documents relating to other revolutionary leaders, was turned over to the Mexican government in 1981 upon the death of Mrs. Villa.
One may see the saddles of the 'Centaur of the North', as Villa was called, as well as his pistols and armory, bedroom, living quarters and photographic memorabilia relating to his activities during the Mexican Revolution. The centerpiece of the collection in the courtyard is the bullet-ridden Dodge automobile in which he and his bodyguards were assassinated in 1923 in the city of Hidalgo del Parral in southern Chihuahua State. He is said to be buried in the Monumento a la Revolución in Mexico City.
