    This is a betiful building on the main square. The museum has a permanent Salgado exhibition, this is a spectacular showcase of his work. There are exhibits that explain the history of the area. Many in English as well as Portuguese. A great place to visit to understand the area.

  • 5/5 Luiza F. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I consider it the best museum in Praça da Liberdade. It portrays the history of Minas very well, with interactivity and fun. It is a worthwhile tour! Highlight for the room that tells the story of Belo Horizonte (and its ghosts) and for the room of Inconfidência Mineira, these are my two favorites! There is also a room that has chairs with a small television and a headset that allows you to watch short films. My recommendation: Mostra Fernando Sabino> Chicken with brown sauce The only caveat is that they could have extended opening hours on weekends! (Original) Considero o melhor museu da praça da liberdade. Retrata muito bem a história de Minas, com interatividade e diversão. É um passeio que vale a pena! Destaque para a sala que conta a história de Belo Horizonte (e seus fantasmas) e para a sala da Inconfidência Mineira, essas são as minhas duas preferidas! Existe ainda uma sala que tem cadeiras com uma pequena televisão e fone de ouvido que te possibilita assistir curtas-metragens. Minha recomendação: Mostra Fernando Sabino > Galinha ao molho pardo Única ressalva é que poderiam ter o horário de funcionamento mais ampliado aos fins de semana!

    A loy of exhibitions are currently closed (mostly due to the pandemic). But one which is still open is particularly interesting, with projections on three heads and a huge hand. Sadly they don't have either transcription nor translation of anything (that is why they get 4 stars).

  • 5/5 alexandru a. 4 years ago on Google • 12 reviews
    One of the best museums I've seen in a while. Relatively big and a lot of interactive expositions. You can learn a lot(if you understand Portuguese) about the history of the region
