Text description provided by the architects. The Monumental Underground Museum is located in two chambers inside the Zipaquirá Salt Cathedral, 180 meters (approx. 590 feet) underground and just a few meters from the subterranean church. The significance of the entire cathedral complex lies not only in its religious value but also in its heritage, cultural, environmental, and social importance.
