About this place
For those who enjoy exploring the distinctive features of neighboring towns, beyond Santa Cruz Cabrália in Belmonte is the curious Chair Museum. Housed in a centuries-old building, this simple space invites reflection on the creation and use of an object on which we spend at least one-third of our lives. This place is part of Rede Bem Bahia’s Regional Guide and helps visitors understand the natural, historical, cultural and scenic diversity of the Costa do Descobrimento. The experience varies with the time of day, tide, weather, calendar and means of access. Plan your visit considering travel, time on site and current rules, and confirm operational information before setting out.
