Casa do Rio Vermelho, Literary museum in Rio Vermelho district, Salvador, Brazil

A Casa do Rio Vermelho is a museum housed in the former residence of Brazilian writers Jorge Amado and Zelia Gattai in the Rio Vermelho neighborhood. The house displays their personal objects, artworks, books, and letters throughout the rooms where they lived and worked.

The house on Rua Alagoinhas, in Rio Vermelho, was the Salvador residence of writers Jorge Amado and Zélia Gattai. It closed in 2003 when Zélia moved away and stayed shut until 2014, when the city presented a project to turn it into a memorial open to visitors and a ten-year concession agreement was signed.

The house is named for the Rio Vermelho neighborhood, not a river. Since 2014 it has been a memorial with a museum design featuring videos, sound effects and photographs, plus restored furniture and utensils, a souvenir shop and a café. In the garden rest the ashes of Jorge Amado and Zélia Gattai.

The house stands on Rua Alagoinhas in Rio Vermelho and stayed shut from 2003, when Zélia Gattai moved out, until the city's 2014 memorial project. Visits follow a museum layout with videos, sound effects and photographs alongside the restored furniture; a souvenir shop and café occupy part of the building. The garden holding the ashes of both writers is part of the route.

The garden holds the ashes of both writers, Jorge Amado and Zélia Gattai, deposited there after their deaths. Visitors walking the grounds pass the spot where the couple's remains rest, a detail easily missed among the restored furniture and exhibition rooms.
