Initially, it was the artist's summer home and workshop, and includes a museum, an art gallery, a cafeteria and a hotel in its facilities.
[1][2][3] Casapueblo began to be built in 1958 around a wooden box made with planks found on the coast, called La Pionera (The Pioneer), by Carlos Páez Vilaró.
Carlos Páez Vilaró has received some of the most important personalities from the cultural and political field, such as the writer Isabel Allende, the ambassador Mercedes Vicente, the sexologist Mariela Castro, the artist Vinícius de Moraes, among others.
[10] It was built in an artisanal way and without previous plans,[11] in the form of a maze,[6] does not have straight lines inside and the color white predominates.
In the main dome of Casapueblo are the museum and workshop, where one can see part of the work of the late painter, potter, sculptor, muralist, writer, composer and builder Carlos Páez Vilaró.
