Inside this enormous memorial is the tomb of former president Juscelino Kubitschek (JK), which lies underneath eerily beautiful stained glass by French artist Marianne Peretti. The museum houses JK’s 3000-book personal library as well as a pictorial history of Brasília. Don’t miss his 1973 Ford Galaxie!
