Museu Abelardo Rodrigues, Religious art museum in Pelourinho, Salvador, Brazil.
The Abelardo Rodrigues Museum showcases 808 pieces of Brazilian sacred art within the historic Solar Ferrão building in Salvador's colonial district.
The museum opened on November 5, 1981, following a legal dispute between Pernambuco and Bahia states over the ownership of the collection.
The collection features religious artifacts made from clay, wood, ivory, and ceramics, representing different periods of Brazilian craftsmanship.
Visitors can contact the museum at dimus@ipac.ba.gov.br or call (71) 3116-6740 to verify opening hours before planning their visit.
The exhibition hall contains twisted columns that create specific display spaces for the classical works collected by lawyer Abelardo Rodrigues.
