History museum
This is a very big museum. I couldn't visit all the rooms. But, even though the name is related to the state Paraná, this museum is not just about Paraná's history. There are many articles from different parts of the world, like coins and old money. But there is a room with stuffed animals there are common in this part of the country, and also some history of the native people. The only complaint about the museum is that some identification tags were missing and I left without understanding some articles there.

Curitiba History
Housed in a beautiful stately former home, this history museum is located right on the edge of the attractive historical area of Largo da Orden. Although there is no exhibit signage in English, the museum still makes for an interesting browsing experience with plenty of exhibits. The building and grounds are very pleasant, the staff friendly and helpful and the entrance is free!
