Pedro Infante Museum
The Pedro Infante Museum (Museo El Rincón de Pedro Infante) in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico is about the life of Pedro Infante, a famous Mexican Actor and Singer who was born in Mazatlán.
This is a family run museum. The family that operates the museum bought the house where the museum resides without knowledge that Pedro Infante was born there. Later on they learned that he was born there. With the blessing of Pedro Infante's relatives they formed this museum at the front of their house. Many memorabilia items were given by Pedro's family to the museum.
