Pedro Ernesto Palace, Legislative palace in Cinelândia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Pedro Ernesto Palace displays an eclectic architectural design with neoclassical elements, featuring grand columns and ornate decorative details across its exterior facade.

The palace, inaugurated in 1923, emerged from funds initially collected for an Emperor Pedro II statue, which he redirected toward building public schools.

The Municipal Chamber building stands as a center for democratic processes, where 51 elected officials gather to debate and establish laws for Rio de Janeiro.

Visitors can attend public sessions of the Municipal Chamber, accessing the building through the main entrance on Floriano Square during regular business hours.

The palace houses the Pedro Ernesto Medal ceremony, the highest municipal honor, recognizing outstanding contributions to Rio de Janeiro since 1980.
