Museu Militar Conde de Linhares, Military museum in São Cristóvão, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The museum displays extensive collections of military artifacts, including weapons, uniforms, communication equipment, and historical documents from different periods of Brazilian history.

The building, constructed in 1921, initially functioned as barracks for the 1st Machine Gun Company before becoming a museum in 1998.

Five permanent exhibitions tell the story of Brazilian military development, from colonial times to modern operations in United Nations peacekeeping missions.

Located at Avenida Pedro II 383, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with free admission for all visitors.

The museum houses a rare Renault FT tank from 1920, one of only twelve manufactured units that still exist in the world.
