Firma y Odilo Estévez Municipal Decorative Art Museum, Art museum in Plaza 25 de Mayo, Rosario, Argentina.
The Firma y Odilo Estévez Museum is an art museum housed in a former mansion in central Rosario, displaying European furniture, paintings, sculptures, and porcelain from various periods. Works are arranged across multiple exhibition rooms, including Asian art objects that reflect the collectors' broad interests.
The residence opened as a museum in 1968 after Firma Mayor de Estévez donated her home to the City of Rosario in memory of her late husband, Odilo Estévez. This donation allowed the public to access a private art collection built over three decades.
The building bears the name of its donor, Firma Mayor de Estévez, and displays her personal collection of furniture and artworks accumulated over time. Visitors can see how a wealthy household arranged and decorated its spaces across different periods.
The museum is located on Santa Fe street and is accessible Tuesday through Sunday during daytime hours, with extended opening times several days a week. Visitors should note that hours may vary seasonally, so it is helpful to check current times before your visit.
Restoration work beneath the dining room uncovered historical remains, now visible through a glass panel floor. This archaeological discovery reveals the different layers of the building's past.
