Tancredo Neves Pantheon of Fatherland and Freedom, Modernist museum at Praça dos Três Poderes in Brasília, Brazil.

The Tancredo Neves Pantheon of Fatherland and Freedom is a three-floor cenotaph and museum at Praça dos Três Poderes in Brasília, Brazil. Designed by Oscar Niemeyer, the 2,105-square-metre building is clad in opaque marble slabs and, from certain angles, reads as a dove. Outside, a permanently lit flame burns atop a diagonal tower, flanked by three curved panels representing the Army, Navy and Air Force.

Following the death of president-elect Tancredo Neves in 1985, this memorial was created to celebrate the return to democracy. Neves was the first civilian head of state after two decades of military rule and died shortly before his inauguration.

The name honors the first civilian president after military dictatorship and connects the building to Brazil's democratic renewal. Visitors can view the Steel Book, which records the biographies of resistance fighters such as Tiradentes and Zumbi dos Palmares.

The museum sits on Praça dos Três Poderes in the government district and opens from Tuesday to Sunday between 9 AM and 6 PM. Admission is free, and the spaces are accessible by stairs and ramps.

The stained glass by Marianne Peretti sits on the third floor, in the Black Hall, between the Steel Book and João Câmara's seven-panel Inconfidência Mineira painting. Peretti also designed the glass for the Cathedral of Our Lady Aparecida. The Red Hall's Mural da Liberdade by Athos Bulcão is built from three modular walls, each 13.54 m long and 2.76 m high, forming the triangle of the Minas Gerais movement.
