Irmã Dulce Memorial

Irmã Dulce Memorial, Biographical museum in Largo de Roma, Salvador, Brazil

The Irmã Dulce Memorial occupies a building attached to the Santo Antônio Convent at the headquarters of the Obras Sociais Irmã Dulce, in the Roma neighbourhood of Salvador. Its permanent exhibition holds nine thousand objects and follows a route through the nun's bedroom, kept behind a glass dome with her bed, desk, awards and statuettes, and on to her tomb in the Capela das Relíquias.

The memorial opened in Salvador in 1993, a year after Sister Dulce's death, funded by donations from businesspeople and conceived by admirers, friends and relatives. It is housed in a building attached to the Santo Antônio Convent at the headquarters of the Obras Sociais Irmã Dulce in the Roma neighbourhood. It forms part of a Bahiatursa religious-tourism project supported by the Bahia tourism employers' union.

The memorial serves as a place where visitors connect with the life and values of Sister Dulce through her belongings and spaces. The rooms show how her faith guided her daily choices and work with people in need.

The center is located near downtown Salvador and is open Tuesday through Sunday with no admission fee for visitors. The site is easily accessible on foot, and signs in the neighborhood help guide people to the complex.

Sister Dulce slept in a chair for the last 30 years of her life to keep a promise, and that chair is displayed in her room behind a glass case. The room also holds the 18th-century statue of Saint Anthony from her family, before which she prayed.
