Immigration Museum of the State of São Paulo, Immigration museum in Mooca district, São Paulo, Brazil
The Immigration Museum occupies the former Brás Immigrant Hostel building, with exhibitions about migration movements through documents, photographs, and personal objects.
Between 1887 and 1978, the building received 2.5 million immigrants from over 70 nationalities who arrived in São Paulo seeking new opportunities.
The museum maintains a research center that helps families trace their ancestry and find documentation about relatives who passed through the immigration station.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Saturday between 9:00 and 17:00, and on Sundays between 10:00 and 17:00, at Rua Visconde de Parnaíba.
Historic train rides depart from the museum's original railway platform during weekends, allowing visitors to experience the immigrant arrival journey.
