About

The Carmen Miranda Museum (Museu Carmen Miranda), located in Brigadeiro Eduardo Gomes Park (Flamengo Park), is dedicated to honoring the life and career of singer and actress Carmen Miranda. Open to the public since 1976, the museum was officially inaugurated on the 21st anniversary of her death.

The museum was closed to visitors in 2013 but reopened to the public on August 4, 2023, following renovation work. Part of its collection—168 items, including turbans, costumes, and various accessories—is available for online viewing on the “We Wear Culture” platform, launched by Google Arts & Culture.
