Museu Monteiro Lobato, Literature museum in Taubaté, Brazil

The museum occupies a 20,000 square meter estate with a colonial-style house, gardens, theater, and educational spaces for visitors of all ages.

Built in the 19th century, this former residence of Visconde de Tremembé became the birthplace of writer Monteiro Lobato and opened as a museum in 1958.

The museum preserves 1,058 cataloged items, including 317 iconographic pieces, showcasing the literary legacy of Monteiro Lobato and Brazilian folklore.

Visitors can access the museum Tuesday through Sunday, with scheduled theater performances during weekends and holidays featuring characters from Lobato's stories.

The building maintains its original rammed earth construction and brick floors, representing the architectural style of 19th-century Brazilian coffee regions.
