Brazil's WW2 Military History

Very nice small museum that chronicles Brazil's military contribution for the Allied effort in WW2. Most of the information placards have English translations. Covers the Army, Navy and Air Force. All the staff were courteous and friendly.

    Important cultural and historical visit
    The museum is located near the city center and is easily accessed by bus. However, it does not offer accessibility for wheelchair users or people with limited mobility. Visitors do not have to pay any fees simply by filling a name, age, and city of origin in a book. All exhibited pieces are accompanied by explanatory panels in Portuguese and English. The museum tells an important and little known part of the contemporary history of Brazil. The interested visitor will be able to understand how the country's involvement in World War II (WWII) occurred, as well as the difficulties of the expeditionaries and their victories. It is a cultural and historical visit, particularly for young people who know little about this segment of Brazil's history in the great world wars.

    Great for war fanatics
    Brazil doesn't have a rich story as far as World War II goes but still interesting and this museum tells the story very detailed I would recommend for people who enjoy war history
