Palacete da Família Rollemberg, Eclectic mansion in Aracaju, Brazil.

The Palacete da Família Rollemberg is an eclectic mansion in Aracaju that stands out with its curved staircases, upper floor balconies, and decorative pinnacles adorning the roofline. The building blends different architectural styles that Italian craftsmen skillfully incorporated into its design.

This residence was constructed between 1917 and 1919 for the influential Rollemberg family, who held prominence as descendants of the Barons of Japaratuba and Estância. The building emerged during a period of economic growth in Aracaju and embodied the wealth of its owners.

The building is known as the "Casarão das Rollemberg" because Adolfo Rollemberg died in 1919 before finishing it, and his sisters Anna, Eliza and Amélia moved in. The Noble Hall, once used for the family's dinners and receptions, now houses the Memorial da Advocacia Sergipana, which received in 2020 a donation of family photographs, a cup with a moustache guard that belonged to Adolfo, and a French lace curtain from the entrance hall.

The mansion stands on the bank of the Sergipe River in Aracaju and has housed the Palácio da Cidadania and the Memorial da Advocacia since the OAB acquired it in 2008. A restoration added an annex, an external elevator and a walkway without altering the original structure, so step-free access exists. As a working institution, confirm opening hours before visiting.

In August 2020, Marise Rollemberg Levita Cardoso, of the family's fifth generation, and her daughter Maise donated Ana Amélia Rollemberg's collection to the OAB of Sergipe for the Memorial. It includes photographs of events held in the house, a mustache cup that belonged to Adolfo, portraits of Adolfo and his parents, and a French lace curtain from the entrance hall.
