Casa da Xilogravura

Casa da Xilogravura is an art museum in Campos do Jordão focused on woodcut prints, displaying about 2000 works from over 300 Brazilian and international artists. The collection is spread across several exhibition rooms to show the range and depth of this printing tradition.

The building was constructed in 1928 as a Benedictine monastery for nuns. It was converted into an art museum in 1987 by a university professor.

The museum shows how woodcut printing connects Brazilian and international artists through a shared technique. You can see the many ways artists from different countries use this method to express their ideas.

The museum is easy to reach on foot and the exhibitions spread across multiple levels of the building, so allow time to explore at your own pace. The collection is manageable enough to see in one afternoon, but rewards a more thorough visit if you have it.

The museum houses a specialized library devoted to graphic arts and printmaking, offering visitors deeper insight into the tradition. One artwork was created from a tree that fell in the museum's own courtyard, making it a piece with local roots.
