Located
in the main house and throughout the grounds of the property, this
small charming museum houses a collection of artifacts, discovered
on the property during construction of the new house, plus a selection
of pictures and other items donated to the museum over the years.

Once
Lynda purchased the ruin and began to design and construct her home,
she learned that it was the original birthplace of Maria Felix,
a woman she has always admired. Over the past year Lynda has become
more and more interested and enchanted with Maria's life and has
collected over 400 pictures of the actress. Lynda decided to open
a museum in honor of Maria Felix. It is small for so grand a person,
but it has a charm of its own. The museum is not solely this one
small building, it is the whole property. Slowly more and more pictures
of Maria la Bonita are beginning to fill the portales and rooms
of the Casa de Maria Felix.
