Cultural Space and Vale Music

Vale Museum

The Vale Museum was inaugurated in 1998, at the old Pedro Nolasco Railway Station, located on the shores of Baía de Vitória, in the municipality of Vila Velha, Espírito Santo. It was born with the mission of being a place of preservation and diffusion of the records of more than one hundred years of history of the construction of the Vitória-Minas Railroad.

Throughout its history, the Vale Museum has become a reference in terms of contemporary art exhibitions. With the opening of the exhibition hall, the space for major exhibitions was expanded. The site is still used to promote exchange and reflection on art and philosophy, helping to sensitize and train new audiences.

The Vale Museum also has a Memory Center, which provides a collection of about 24 thousand cataloged items, including photos, films, maps, books, objects and others related to the Vitória-Minas Railroad and the only daily passenger train in Brazil to travel long distances, in addition to items related to contemporary art.
