Tigre makes free cultural activities available to residents that mix art, literature, history and theater.
Among the options to enjoy during the summer are visits to the different museums and local cultural spaces, both on the mainland and in the Delta.
One of the proposals, which generally remains open throughout the year, is the
Museo de Arte Moderno de Tigre
,
(MAT)
, a cultural icon of the district, located at Paseo Victorica 972. Currently you can visit the samples: "
Magda Frank, modern and pre-Columbian";
"Human Fauna"
by Iglesias Brickles,
"Artistas de La Boca",
"The Beginnings"
;
"
Historical Tiger"
;
"The national landscape"
and
"The first metaphor is the river"
.
The MAT is open for your visit from Wednesday to Sunday and holidays from 1 pm to 6 pm, admission is free and free, and the gardens are only open from Monday to Sunday and holidays from 8 am to 8 pm.
Any concern regarding the museum, the municipality recommends that you resolve the doubts by entering the website, Facebook or Instagram of the museum.
The Tigre Art Museum on the outside
The
Xul Solar House Museum
is another of the most recommended attractions, located in Chacabuco and Los Ciruelos, Villa La Ñata, you can see the place where the artist lived the last years of his life.
The artist had planned to carry out a project in Tigre: create a community life where nature played a leading role.

The tour is carried out by means of a guided tour with prior reservation, and its opening hours in the summer are from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.

And history is not left behind when it comes to Tigre, which is why

Santiago de Liniers
, who landed on the shores of Tigre in 1806 during the first English invasion.
