Palacete do Comendador Bernardo Martins Catharino, Manor house in Graça district, Salvador, Brazil
The Palacete do Comendador Bernardo Martins Catharino features eclectic architecture with European artistic influences from the early 20th century and decorative elements by Oreste Sercelli.
Built in 1912 by architect Rossi Baptista, this residence marks the transition period when wealthy families moved from central Salvador to peripheral areas.
The building houses the Contemporary Art Museum of Bahia since 2023, after serving as the Rodin Museum Bahia from 2003 to recent years.
Located at Rua da Graça 284, the manor includes a contemporary exhibition hall for temporary displays and gardens with four Auguste Rodin statues.
The architectural design shares similarities with Hotel Biron in Paris, which currently serves as the Rodin Museum in France.
