Lonely Planet review for Museu Afro-Brasil
With a permanent collection of some 5000 objects ranging from paintings to religious objects to historical documents, this remarkable museum occupies a winningly open and bright Niemeyer pavilion. Opened in 2004, it sheds light on the lives of Brazil’s African diaspora, from slave times through to the present. Signage in Portuguese only.
