The Copan Sculpture Museum is designed to give the visitor a sense of how the ancient Maya viewed their world, and recorded its most important aspects in architectural and free-standing sculpture. 

Copan is unique in the Mayan realm for its emphasis on sculpture, since it was home to the most carved commemorative stelae and altars, as well as many complex stone and stucco sculptures decorating the buildings. Thus the Copan Sculpture Museum presents the most beautiful and informative sculptures to the pubic, while at the same time preserving them in an enclosed environment that will insure that they can be admired and pondered for centuries to come. With signage in English and Spanish, it is a must for anyone with the slightest interest in understanding Mayan history and archaeology.
