The decision to build the Castle was made in 1784, originally planned as a lavish country house for the viceroys. Later it became the headquarters of the Military College and, between 1864 and 1867, it was the Imperial Residence of Maximilian of Habsburg and Carlota, who transformed the gardens to European taste and made modifications to the architecture. It continued as an Official Residence during the Porfiriato, when the changes that last to date were made.
In 1935 Lázaro Cárdenas moved to Rancho de La Hormiga, today Los Pinos, and later decreed that the Castillo de Chapultepec function as the National Museum of History. This ranges from pre-Hispanic and viceregal history to the beginning of the 20th century; above all, attempts are being made to relive the times when the Castle was the official residence of viceroys and then presidents.
