About Museu WEG de Ciência e Tecnologia
The Museu WEG de Ciência e Tecnologia occupies the building associated with the company's first headquarters in Jaraguá do Sul. Opened in 2003, it has developed a collection whose origin goes back to the preservation of electric motors and technological memory. The founders' history combines with content on electricity, magnetism, energy and equipment operation.
Walk through the exhibits relating the historical pieces to the explanatory resources available. The interest is not limited to recognizing motor models: the exhibition helps to understand principles and changes in industrial production. Interactive activities must follow the instructions of staff and equipment, without forcing parts or mechanisms. Before a group visit, check the educational services and the possibility of mediation, allowing time for the museum's different themes.
