Museu Rodin Bahia

Museu Rodin Bahia, Art museum and historic mansion in Graça district, Salvador, Brazil.

Palacete das Artes Rodin Bahia is an art museum and historic mansion located in Salvador's Graça district. The building displays bronze sculptures by Auguste Rodin within gardens surrounded by century-old trees and native plantings.

The mansion was built in 1912 for Commander Bernardo Martins Catharino. In the 2000s it was restored to house the Museu Rodin Bahia, with the architectural design by Marcelo Ferraz and Francisco Fanucci. The museum was conceived by Bahian artist Emanoel Araújo with Jacques Vilain, director of the Musée Rodin in Paris. It operated until 2023, when it gave way to the Museum of Contemporary Art of Bahia.

The museum was conceived by Bahian artist Emanoel Araújo with Jacques Vilain, director of the Musée Rodin in Paris, strengthening artistic ties between France and Bahia. It stood alongside the Museu de Arte da Bahia and MAM-BA as one of the state's main visual arts venues. In 2023 it gave way to the Museum of Contemporary Art of Bahia.

The museum is open from Tuesday to Friday starting at 1 PM and on weekends from 2 PM, with full wheelchair accessibility throughout the grounds. The gardens provide shaded paths among the old trees, making a visit comfortable regardless of the time of day.

Four original bronze sculptures by Auguste Rodin stand permanently in the gardens, making this the only institution in Brazil to display these works. This collection attracts art lovers from across the country who want to engage with Rodin's work outside Europe.
