Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame (Salón de la Fama)
At the heart of Monterrey’s Fundidora Park, the expansive Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame (Salón de la Fama del Béisbol Mexicana) pays homage to Mexican baseball stars by way of personal belongings and memorabilia in an imposing terracotta building. Tour the interactive exhibits, test your talents in the batting cages, and enjoy the mezzanine garden.

There’s plenty to keep baseball and non-baseball fans alike entertained at the Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame.
