The Museo de la Lealtad Republicana (Museum of the Republican Loyalty), also known as the Museo Casa Juárez, is a 19th-century building in the city centre of Chihuahua, Chih., Mexico. It housed the constitutional government of President Benito Juárez during his stay in Chihuahua while Maximillian of Habsburg reigned as Emperor of Mexico, supported by the French, and was thus the de facto National Palace of Mexico.

In 1826 the location was purchased by the state government to serve as the Palace of Government, a role it fulfilled until the new impressive palace was inaugurated in 1892. On October 12, 1864, President Benito Juárez, fleeing from the French invasion, finally arrived in the city where he decided to establish his government-in-exile.
