    Wonder place to visit in Belo Horizonte and in any city (main cities in Brazil have the Cultural Center of Banco do Brazil). Entry is free. Here there is an interior terrace shared by two cafes/ restaurants, with very nice ambiance; the prices are a bit too high, so it is not for the backpacker, but it is nice to have a different experience. The exhibits are usually well curated. Currently there are two, one of Antonio Poteiro, Brazilian popular artist and one of Man Ray, the famous photographer. Both very interesting and, again, with free entrance. Coming here gives you the opportunity to enjoy the Freedom square (Praça da Liberdade) where it is settled. Don’t miss the wavy building of Oscar Niemeyer, renown Brazilian modernist architect.

    Beautiful location for a quick visit as it is very small with very little to see and learn even if you are mega interested in history like me

    It is a nice and cool place/museum to visit in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Located in the downtown/center of the city it is also close to some other local places that are worth visiting. Every month it has differents themes expositions that are also very cool. Really enjoyed it!

    I've been here for two exhibits, and both were fantastic. Great location to access other tourist spots like Praca Liberdade and see some interesting architecture.

    It is truly worthy of the name it bears. The cultural events vary from expositions to theatrical plays. And if you can spare some time, there's an inviting coffee shop on the premises.

    Most people working there was very nice and accommodating. I’m a beginner Portuguese speaker and when they see me struggling, they very kindly spoke slowly and helped me with what I needed. The exhibition was great and the interior of the building is stunning.

    Lovely museum in Belo Horizonte/ MG - Brasil. Always improving with different expositions.

  • 5/5 Marina C. 6 years ago on Google
    I've been to many different expos there, the last one being "Disruptiva". It's definitely worth a visit! The building is beautiful and the people that work there are professional and friendly.

    I was on an exhibition of Jean-Michel Basquiat. The place is really nice. The staff is well prepared to give you a good experience. In the downtown of Belo Horizonte, a vivid neighborhood with bars and restaurants.

    Good option to visit. Part of Praça da Liberdade Circuit. Take time to visit the restaurant on the 1st floor

    Interesting heritage place with some great exhibitions for free.

  • 5/5 Christopher S. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a great way to pass an afternoon in the city. There's always something interesting to see, and the exhibitions are generally extremely well curated and thought out. Aside from this, it's in a gorgeous old colonial era stone building. If you're looking for something a little bit different that's off the main tourist track, then it's worth spending a few hours here.

    Expo of Mark Chagall was good in quality and quantity. Only the captures were all the same"lithography, from private collection", which I doubt. Clearly doesn't apply for every item, since I know some of thm. I liked the cheesecake in the patio cafe.

  • 4/5 Nando M. 1 year ago on Google
    We always came here to see the expositions. Our daughter love them. And we must say that the fact it is free of charge (most of the time) is good not only because the obvious reason, but coz' it allows all people to have access to art, culture.

    Osgemelos will be closing soon. I hope it will find another home after Belo Horizonte. Excellent exhibit!

  • 5/5 Elena 8 months ago on Google • 27 reviews
    the museum is nicely curated and you can also visit some of the rooms upstairs, which are kept as they were while the building was a public office. There’s also a restaurant and cafe in the courtyard with a stylish interior.
