    Must see museum if you are a foreigner traveling to this city. Entering is gratis, it consists of a historical home attached to a modern building with a diverse array of exhibits, including natural history, historical records of the state of Paraná, as well as various bills and coins from around the world. If your Portuguese is not strong you need to have your smartphone handy to read the exhibits.

    Good place. Small but worth the visit to learn about the state history. Bad piece goes to have it in Portuguese only.

    It's a little disorganized with many sections blocked off. It had a few interesting objects. The old coins were great. Just glad it was free

    (Translated by Google) Excellent place to visit in Curitiba. I have always found it closed for renovations, and to the surprise, the appearance of only a big house deceives the outsider. (Original) Lugar excelente para visitar em Curitiba. Sempre encontrei fechado para reformas, e para surpresa, a aparência de só um casarão engana quem vê por fora.

    (Translated by Google) Easy access and free, quiet street to park (use street parking card EstaR - one hour for $ 3.00). If there are no parking spaces, stop at a nearby parking lot ($ 10). In 2 hours you win with tranquility. This will also depend on your taste for history. I ran at 1pm and recommend it for all ages. (Original) Fácil acesso e gratuito, rua tranquila pra estacionar (use cartão de estacionamento em rua EstaR - uma hora por $3,00). Se não houver vagas pare num estacionamento próximo ($10). Em 2h você vence com tranquilidade. Isso vai depender também do seu gosto por história. Corri em 1h e recomendo para todas as idades.

  • 5/5 Israel B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Museum with exhibition of various items and areas of knowledge, such as archeology, natural history, history of Paraná and Brazil among others. The location could not be better, as it is in the historical center of Curitiba near other places of this type. Anyone who wants to enjoy the tour needs to book at least 2 hours, considering the size of the museum. The service is great and you can store your backpacks, bags or bags in a luggage storage, making the most of the ride. A great walk to do with the family, and learn a little more. Super recommend it. (Original) Museu com exposição de diversos itens e áreas do conhecimento, tais como arqueologia, história natural, história do Paraná e Brasil entre outras. A localização não poderia ser melhor, pois fica no centro histórico de Curitiba perto de outros locais do tipo. Quem quiser aproveitar o passeio, precisa reservar pelo menos 2 horas, considerando o tamanho do museu. O atendimento é ótimo e você pode guardar suas mochilas, bolsas ou sacolas em um guarda-volumes, aproveitando melhor o passeio. Um ótimo passeio para se fazer com a família, além de aprender um pouco mais. Super recomendo.

  • 5/5 Matheus N. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Excellent, the only recommendation I leave for visitors is not to go with too many objects or too large bags, because the museum rules forbid that you enter with bags, bottles, etc. You have to leave them in the museum closet. (Original) Excelente, a única recomendação que eu deixo para os visitantes é não ir com muitos objetos ou bolsas muito grandes, pois o regulamento do museu proíbe que se entre com bolsas, garrafas, etc. Tem que deixá-las no armário do museu.

    (Translated by Google) With free admission near Largo da Ordem, a gigantic and very well maintained museum. It has a very rich collection that portrays the history and culture of the state in the form of paintings, sculptures, photographs, clothing and various objects. You must reserve at least 2 hours, as there are three floors and several rooms that house the collection that is worth visiting !! (Original) Com entrada gratuita próximo ao Largo da Ordem, um Museu gigantesco e muito bem conservado. Conta com um acervo muito rico que retrata a história e cultura do estado em forma de pinturas, esculturas, fotografias, vestuários e diversos objetos. É preciso reservar pelo menos 2 horas, pois são três pavimentos e diversas salas que abrigam o acervo que vale a pena ser visitado!!

  • 5/5 Alana C. 4 years ago on Google • 9 reviews
    Excellent exhibitions, including a large collection focusing on the indigenous peoples of Brazil (all items with English descriptions ❤️). There’s also a very interesting overview of the rich intercultural, multiethnic makeup of the state (as of Jan 2020, only in Portuguese - but hey, the camera function of Google translate works wonderfully!).

  • 5/5 Clairo P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) An excellent museum. Very well organized, in an old house and very well maintained. The only point I missed was more material in the collection about the state of Paraná. (Original) Um excelente museu. Muito bem organizado, numa casa antiga e muito bem cuidada. Único ponto que senti falta foi de mais material no acervo sobre o estado do Paraná.

  • 4/5 Higor M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Good location and very nice collection. The annoying point (already reported here on Google by others) is the relationship between the guards and the public. I was looking for the exit, I saw a door with a sign saying "Exit" and I tried to exit through it. A guard approached me and, instead of indicating the correct exit, limited himself to saying "are you seeing someone going around? Only you want to go around". The visitor should not be forced to deduce that a door with an "Exit" sign cannot be used to get out, we don't spend as much time in the museum as the guards, I have no idea how many people use that door, where people usually go leave, if there is more than 1 exit etc. Anyway, we left by the entrance kkkkk (Original) Boa localização e acervo bem bacana. O ponto chato (já relatado aqui no Google por outras pessoas) é o relacionamento dos guardas com o público. Eu estava procurando a saída, vi uma porta com placa dizendo "Saída" e tentei sair por ela. Um guarda me abordou e, ao invés de indicar a saída correta, se limitou a dizer "você está vendo alguém sair por aí? Só você quer sair por aí". O visitante não deveria ser obrigado a deduzir que uma porta com placa de "Saída" não pode ser usada para sair, nós não passamos tanto tempo no museu quanto os guardas, não faço ideia de quantas pessoas usam aquela porta, por onde as pessoas costumam sair, se há mais de 1 saída etc. Enfim, saímos pela entrada kkkkk

    (Translated by Google) A trip through time and history, looking from the outside I never imagined the size and wealth of content available, as soon as you enter there is a luggage storage and a visitation register book followed by a glass door that starts the cultural immersion , ah detail visitation is free, I suggest taking a walk around the square of the order, which takes place on Sunday mornings and then go to the museum. (Original) Uma viagem no tempo e história, olhando de fora nunca imaginei o tamanho e riqueza de conteúdo disponíveis, logo que entra há um guarda volumes para bolsas e um livro de registro da visitação seguido vc depara com uma porta com vidros que dá início a imersão cultural, ah detalhe a visitação é gratuita, sugiro dar uma volta feira do largo da ordem, que acontece nas manhãs de domingo e em seguida ir ao museu.

    (Translated by Google) A great museum, created in the eighteenth century, located in the city of Curitiba. During my visit I activate the exhibition with the theme: Occupation of Paraná. The museum has a large space, very well maintained and monitored. Paraná is to be congratulated. It takes great care of its history and culture which is fundamental for a noble and developed people. (Original) Um ótimo museu, criado no século XVIII, localizado na cidade de Curitiba. Na minha visita me ative a exposição com o tema: Ocupação do território paranaense.
