Casa Museu Eva Klabin

The Eva Klabin House Museum is an art house museum in the Lagoa neighborhood near Rodrigo de Freitas Lake, holding more than 2,000 pieces displayed throughout nine themed rooms. The collection spans Egyptian artifacts, Renaissance paintings, Asian sculptures, and Pre-Columbian pottery, each room focused on a different period or geographic origin.

The founder gathered this collection over five decades traveling through Europe and Asia, bringing together objects that interested her from different parts of the world. The museum itself was established in 1990 to safeguard and share this personal accumulation of artwork and artifacts for future generations.

The museum displays Egyptian pieces, Renaissance works, Asian sculptures, and Pre-Columbian objects arranged to show how different cultures expressed their creativity across time. Visitors can walk through rooms where each collection tells a story about the people who made these items and what mattered to them.

The house operates as an indoor museum, so visitors can tour the collection regardless of weather, and the rooms flow naturally from one to another making it easy to follow the layout. Plan to spend a couple of hours here, and note that photography rules and access to certain areas may have restrictions that staff can explain upon arrival.

The gardens surrounding the building were designed by one of Brazil's most celebrated landscape architects in the 1950s, featuring native tropical plants that create a quiet environment away from the busy city. Walking through these outdoor spaces is as much part of the visit as seeing the indoor collection.
