Museo Etnográfico Casa de las Azores, Ethnographic museum in Biguaçu, Brazil.

The Museu Etnográfico Casa dos Açores occupies a two-storey sobrado built in the first half of the 19th century in São Miguel da Terra Firme, Biguaçu, about 20 km from Florianópolis. The house, an example of Azorean-Madeiran architecture, stands on the left side of BR-101 southbound and forms part of a complex with the Igreja de São Miguel Arcanjo, a chácara and the arches of an old aqueduct. Its collection includes sacred art, whaling gear, scale models of flour and sugar mills, and 40 Azorean costumes.

The sobrado was built in the first half of the 19th century by João Ramalho da Silva Pereira, a landowner and the first vice-president of Santa Catarina province. In 1865 Manoel Joaquim Madeira bought and renovated it. The state government acquired the house in 1978 and, after restoration with IPHAN support, opened the museum on 4 March 1979.

The collection holds more than 40 Azorean costumes, from folk dress to field, work and festival clothing, alongside ceramics, basketry and traditional musical instruments. A room honours canon Rodolfo Machado with photographs, archives and personal objects. The library keeps 400 books and historical documents donated by the Government of the Azores.

The museum stands on the left side of BR-101 heading south to north, in São Miguel da Terra Firme, about 20 km from central Florianópolis. It shares its grounds with the Church of São Miguel Arcanjo, the farmhouse and the arches of the old aqueduct, so allow time to walk between them. The building is a two-storey 19th-century sobrado with rooms on both floors.

The museum is part of a larger complex that includes a church, an old aqueduct, and a historic farm. Visitors can explore these connected structures to gain a fuller picture of how early settlers lived.
