About Museu de Arte de Joinville
The Museu de Arte de Joinville operates in the former residence of the Doerffel family, a historic building that links architecture and urban memory to the artistic program. The institution opened in 1976 and maintains the space for exhibitions and engagement with artistic production. The interest of a visit involves both the building and the works available at the time.
An exhibition can change between trips, so check the program and which spaces are open before you arrive. View works using the curatorial information provided and respect rules on photography and movement in the galleries. The old house has its own history, which does not mean every object on display belonged to the family who lived there. Educational or group visits need to be arranged to ensure service appropriate to the chosen route.
