Museo ng Muntinlupa

Construction
The construction of the Museo ng Muntinlupa commenced on April 25, 2017, with an allotted budget of ₱180 million by the city government.

It was opened to the public on March 1, 2019[3] coinciding with Muntinlupa's 24th founding anniversary as a city.[4]
Architecture
The museum standing on a 3,000 m2 (32,000 sq ft) land[4] was designed by Beaudon Causapin,[5] the City Architect of Muntinlupa.[6] The building's facade was designed based on the salakab, a traditional fishing trap made from weaved bamboo sticks and fasted by rattan rope often used by fishers working in Laguna de Bay, as a tribute to Muntinlupa's fishing industry which is a major part of the city's economy. The Museo ng Muntinlupa stands five storeys high.[3] The ochre columns and wire netting of the buildings were devised to manage the building's temperature by absorbing and deflecting heat.[6]
Facilities
The Museum host a main gallery, a mayor's hall, an interactive science center,[3] and a theater with 200 people seating capacity. It features exhibits featuring the city's history from the precolonial era until the modern period. It also features works of the city's contemporary artists as well as temporary exhibitions.[4]
