Museu do Futebol

The Museu do Futebol displays an extensive collection of jerseys, trophies, photographs, and multimedia exhibits that chronicle Brazil's football heritage and the sport's development throughout the country's history.

Inaugurated in 2008 within the Maracanã Stadium complex, the museum was established to preserve Brazilian football memory through permanent and temporary exhibitions showcasing the sport's evolution from amateur to professional levels.

The museum explores football's profound social impact in Brazil, featuring exhibits on organized supporters, their cultural manifestations, and how the sport has influenced social movements and community integration across different historical periods.

The museum operates Tuesday through Sunday from 9 AM to 5 PM with free admission, offering guided tours for school groups and tourists, except on days when matches are held at Maracanã Stadium.

The museum houses the famous 'Walk of Fame' celebrating 90 legendary players with their footprints embedded in cement and marble, commemorating the Maracanã Stadium's 50th anniversary in 2000.
