Museu Entomológico Fritz Plaumann, Entomological museum in Seara, Brazil.

The Museu Entomológico Fritz Plaumann is an insect research center located in Seara, in the state of Santa Catarina. The facility houses specimens collected from the Upper Uruguai river region and serves visitors who want to study insects from southern Brazil.

The museum opened on 23 October 1988 in front of Fritz Plaumann's house in Nova Teutônia, built by the Seara municipal government and the Fundação Catarinense de Cultura with support from Banco do Brasil. It is now run under an agreement between the Seara municipality, which owns the collection, and the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.

The museum keeps Plaumann's working materials alongside the insects: his equipment, personal objects, letters, medals, decorations and photographs are on display. The district, Nova Teutônia, was a German-speaking settlement where he lived and collected, and the 1,500 species he discovered there are part of the collection.

The museum stands in Nova Teutônia, a district in the countryside of Seara, in front of Fritz Plaumann's former residence. It is run under an agreement between the Seara municipal government, which owns the collection, and the Federal University of Santa Catarina. Contact the museum before travelling, since it is a small facility in a rural area.

The collection grew from the personal work of Fritz Plaumann, a researcher who spent decades collecting insects across this region. His dedication transformed the place into a key resource for studying insect life in southern Brazil.
