Casa Blanca Museum was first constructed in 1521 as the principal residence of Puerto Rico’s first governor Juan Ponce de Leon, and this is Old San Juan’s first residence. Today, the house serves as a museum, housing the 16th and 17th-century artifacts.
Then repurposed into a Spanish governor’s residence, Casa Blanca transports visitors to another era. Puerto Rico’s destiny was dictated by a colonial ruler whose cultural and social footprint is still evident.
In the Casa Blanca Museum, you can find original artifacts between the 16th and 17th centuries. You can also explore the beautiful gardens while taking in some moments of peace and tranquillity.
