First Museum of my birth city!

This is such a huge improvement to my city! Altinho is a small, countryside city in Pernambuco. Since a Jesuit priest endeavour transformed his dream in legacy, the Museu de Arte Sacra & Outros Segmentos (Sacred Arts & other branches museum) came to be. Here is where one can learn how the religion imposed by colonialists built this country and framed people’s lives. I haven’t even dreamed about such experience, as I have grown without the proper historical knowledge I got nowadays. Anyone who visits here is taken to quite a few other interesting places as the trip goes on.

Hello @HFelix ,

Thank you very much for introducing this museum to us! I just wanted to let you know that I’ve removed the Portuguese (Brazilian) language tag form your post as is in English. Keep in mind that language labels are marked when you are using a specific language and helps Local Guides find posts in the language they speak or are interested in.

Locations are marked separately and should not be mixed with the language. You can find posts in a particular language in the article: How do I find posts in my preferred language?.
