Paço do Frevo, Cultural heritage museum in Recife, Brazil.
The Paço do Frevo occupies a four-story building in Recife's historic district, presenting exhibitions about the regional dance and music tradition through multimedia displays.
The building housed the Western Telegraph Company until 1973, and in 2014 it transformed into a museum dedicated to preserving the Frevo cultural movement.
The museum organizes regular workshops, dance lessons, and musical performances to maintain the traditions of Frevo, recognized as Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO.
Visitors can access the museum Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM and weekends from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM, with tickets priced at 10 Brazilian reais.
