José Antônio Pereira Museum, Cultural heritage museum in Campo Grande, Brazil.

The museum occupies the former Bálsamo Farm building, constructed in 1880, featuring traditional wooden structures and rammed earth walls characteristic of early Campo Grande architecture.

José Antônio Pereira arrived in the Vacaria region in 1872 from Minas Gerais, leading a group that included his eldest son, two freed slaves, and a guide.

The museum displays numerous regional artifacts, documents, and photographs that detail the early settlement and development of Campo Grande through the Pereira family legacy.

Located at Avenida Guaicurus, the museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM with extended hours during weekends.

A granite sculpture at the entrance depicts the Pereira family, created by artist José Carlos da Silva in 1980 to commemorate the centennial of the original farmhouse.
