Immigrant Inn, Immigration museum in Brás District, São Paulo, Brazil

The Immigration Museum occupies a rectangular building with five floors, featuring 112 apartments and three elevators in the Brás neighborhood of São Paulo.

The establishment began operations in 1887 as a reception center for international immigrants, accommodating over 2.5 million people from 70 different nationalities through its doors.

The museum documents the integration of multiple immigrant communities into Brazilian society through exhibits, artifacts, and historical records from the late 19th century.

Visitors can access the museum via public transportation, with proximity to São Bento Metro Station and convenient connections to major cultural institutions.

The building served multiple functions throughout its history, including as a political prison in 1924 and as a shelter for Korean immigrants in 1978.
