See some of the rarest and most fascinating artifacts of Peru’s ancient Moche civilization at the Royal Tombs Museum. On this tour from Chiclayo with a knowledgeable guide, gain insight into the Moche people, who lived in northern Peru from the 1st to 8th centuries. In 1987, archeologists excavated Moche tombs filled with treasures, as well as mummies like the Lord of Sipán, which now reside at the museum in Lambayeque, just north of Chiclayo. Choose the private tour option for a more personalized experience, if you wish.

Departure Point

Traveler pickup is offered

    After hotel pickup in central Chiclayo, head with your guide to the Royal Tombs Museum in the town of Lambayeque, 7 miles (11 km) north of Chiclayo.
  • Royal Tombs of Sipan Museum, Lambayeque, Peru
    When you arrive, marvel at the museum’s unusual exterior — a replica of a Moche tomb — before heading inside with your guide for your tour. While you walk around, learn about the museum’s history and impressive collection of artifacts from your guide. Open since 2002 and dedicated to the excavated tombs of the ancient Moche civilization, the museum is named after the Lord of Sipán, the name given to one of the bejeweled Moche mummies found in northern Peru in 1987. See gold and silver artifacts, precious stones, jewelry, headdresses and other rare treasures found in the Moche tombs, and learn about the theory archeologists have about how the Moche lived and what position the Lord of Sipán held in the ancient community. When your tour is over, you’ll be returned to Chiclayo.

Het museum heeft een zeer uitgebreide collectie schatten uit de graftombe en je krijgt een zeer goed overzicht en uitleg over het leven (en de dood) in die tijd. Het museum is een "must" en trek er gerust twee à drie uur tijd voor uit. Je raakt er makkelijk en goedkoop met een collectivo van uit Chiclayo, een excursie boeken is niet nodig.

Laster auf, so dass am Ende keine Nadel mehr Platz hätte. Ich möchte den Herrn von Sipán treffen. 1987 war die Entdeckung dieses ungestörten königlichen Grabes eines der Meilensteine der Archäologie auf dem amerikanischen Kontinent. Die bis heute unversehrt gebliebenen Überreste eines Fürsten und sieben weiteren Menschen, unter anderem ein Priester und ein Militärbefehlshaber, sind von der Zeit vor den Inkas und werden auf das dritte Jahrhundert unserer Zeitrechnung taxiert. Die Mochekultur lebte in dieser Region gemäss Forschung ab dem ersten Jahrhundert nach Christus, beherrschte bereits die Metallverarbeitung und konnte Kupferlegierungen herstellen. Durch eine Art Rohrförmige Särge mit Schilf eingewickelt und in einer lehmreichen Erde vergraben blieben sie gut erhalten. Eine DNA-Analyse zeigte, dass eines der Skelette dem Herrn von Sipán zugeordnet werden konnte und weitere bis in die vierte Generation. Schmuck, Ornamente und andere Fundstücke weisen darauf hin, dass diese Kultur hochentwickelt war und ebenfalls eine religiöse Hierarchie kannte.
