(Translated by Google) 19th century theater renovated in the late 1990s with presentations of various shows, such as plays and concerts. As we were passing through the city because our final destination was Tiradentes, we didn't see the show schedule... we decided to stay on the bridge and take some photos... the whole city is beautiful!

(Translated by Google) I hated the place. I came for a ballet performance and there was no bathroom to use. They put in a flooded chemical toilet for us to use, with no place to wash our hands. It was incredibly hot. It was a terrible place and I will never go back. (Original) Detestei o lugar,vim para uma apresentação de ballet não tinha uma banheiro pra usar,colocaram um banheiro químico inundou pra gente usar sem nenhum lugar pra lava as mãos um calorão danado.

(Translated by Google) Located at Rua José Gômide, s/n - Centro, the Municipal Theater of SJDR was inaugurated on February 2, 1893. It underwent extensive renovations between 1922 and 1925. It features an imposing Greco-Roman façade, reached by a spacious staircase, adorned on both sides with artistic semicircular balustrades. This façade boasts three majestic Roman doors on the ground floor, each of which is carved with an allegorical face, representing drama, comedy, and tragedy, respectively. At each end, rectangular windows are set behind a rich balustrade. The central window is separated from the others by a beautiful Greek column on each side, and at each end rise two twin columns, also in the same Greek style. Beyond the columns, the walls on each side reveal exquisite ornamental lacework, just as exquisite is the ornamentation, in the form of shields above each of the large windows. Above the lacework are inscribed the names of prominent artists: Alvarenga Peixoto, Severiano de Resende, Rodrigues de Melo, Ribeiro Bastos, and Cláudio Manoel. The pediment's tympanum, 8 meters and 50 centimeters long and 1 meter and 50 centimeters high, was carved in high relief with allegorical figures referring to music and drama by the sculptor Hugo Taddei. In the center, flanked by mythological figures, appears in relief the coat of arms of SJDR. Crowning the monumental building are statues, 2 meters and 20 cm tall, representing Apollo, standing flanked by seated figures alluding to poetry and music, the work of sculptor Waldemar Rodgonoff. The ground floor seats 408 people, and the upper floor seats 190 (with 10 boxes, each with a capacity of 50). The entire ceiling features ornamentation and relief. Next to the stage is a comfortable pit for the orchestra, including the stage, wings, and three dressing rooms. (Original) Localizado à Rua José Gômide, s/n - Centro. O Teatro Municipal de SJDR foi inaugurado no dia 02/02/1893. Passou por uma grande reforma entre 1922 e 1925. Apresenta imponente fachada em estilo Greco-Romano, a qual se atinge por meio de espaçosa escadaria, guarnecida, em ambos os lados, de artísticas balaustradas semicirculares. Essa fachada ostenta no térreo três majestosas portas romanas, sobre cada uma das quais se esculpe um rosto alegórico, representando, respectivamente o drama, a comédia e a tragédia. A cada extremidade, situa-se as janelas retangulares se postam por detrás de rica balaustrada. A janela central é separada das demais por uma belíssima coluna grega de cada lado, sendo, q a cada extremo alteiam-se duas colunas germinadas tbm no mesmo estilo grego. Para fora das colunas, mostram as paredes, em cada lado, primoroso rendilhado ornamental, como primorossíma é a ornamentação, em forma de escudos, encima cada um dos janelões. Por sobre os referidos rendilhões, inscrevem-se os nomes do conspícuos artistas: Alvarenga Peixoto, Severiano de Resende, Rodrigues de Melo, Ribeiro Bastos e Cláudio Manoel. O tímpano do frontão, c/8 m e 50 cm de comprimento e 1 m e 50 cm de altura, foi esculpido em alto relevo c/figuras alegóricas referentes à música e ao drama, pelo escultor Hugo Taddei. No centro ladeado por figuras mitológicas, aparece em relevo o brasão de SJDR. Coroando o monumental edifício, vemos estátuas, c/2 m e 20 cm de altura, representando Apolo, em pé ladeado por figuras alusivas à poesia e à música, estas sentadas, obra do escultor Waldemar Rodgonoff.

When visiting São João del Rei, a must-see is the Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar. Known as the "Land where the bells speak," this historical church is a prime example of Brazilian colonial art, featuring rich gold decorations and stunning baroque architecture. Even if you can't go inside, you can admire its beautiful paintings and statues. It's also a great place to attend morning mass at 7 am.
So beautiful and traditional. 🌹💐🙏

The Museu Ferroviário, located at the Estacao Ferroviaria de Sao Joao del Rei, is a significant attraction in the city. The railway complex was designated as a historical heritage site in 1989 and the museum itself was established in 1981. It offers an insightful journey through the history of railway expansion in the region and the evolution of trains.
Well organized, informative and no entry fee. Recommended.

A old railway museum (free entry). Not too much info in English, so if not fluent in Portuguese, one needs a translator app. Once or twice a week, you can buy a ticket on an old-timey train to Tiradentes.

A nice place, specially for kids. There’s a train tour from São João to tiradentes and back, costing (as of today) R$70,00. It takes 30min to arrive in tiradentes. You need to book in advance (I’d recommend at least a day before the intended trip). The views aren’t fantastic, but it’s still a nice thing to do.

(Translated by Google) Free admission. The São João del-Rei Regional Museum is located in a mansion built in 1859, which belonged to Comendador João Antônio da Silva Mourão, an important businessman in the city. The building was almost demolished, but IPHAN intervened and it was transformed into a museum, inaugurated in 1963. The collection includes antique furniture, everyday objects, religious art, clothing, carriages, musical instruments and other items that show what life was like in Minas Gerais in past centuries. One part that I thought was really cool was a painting that, when you move, it seems like your eyes follow you. I only noticed this because the security staff explained it. It was a detail that made the visit even more interesting. I really enjoyed the experience. It's worth a visit for anyone in the city! (Original) Entrada gratuita. O Museu Regional de São João del-Rei funciona num casarão construído em 1859, que foi do comendador João Antônio da Silva Mourão, um comerciante importante na cidade. O prédio quase foi demolido, mas o IPHAN interveio e ele foi transformado em museu, inaugurado em 1963. O acervo tem móveis antigos, objetos de uso diário, arte sacra, roupas, carruagens, instrumentos musicais e outros itens que mostram como era a vida em Minas nos séculos passados. Uma parte que achei muito legal foi um quadro que, quando a gente se movimenta, parece que os olhos acompanham a gente. Eu só reparei nisso porque o pessoal da segurança explicou. Foi um detalhe que tornou a visita ainda mais interessante. Gostei bastante da experiência. Vale a visita pra quem estiver na cidade!

The museum is located inside a restored mansion with several pieces, objects, paintings and furniture that tell the history of the region. We especially loved the attention of the security guard who explained some of the objects and one of the paintings where there is the illusion that the eyes of the girl portrayed are following you (like those of the Mona Lisa). There is a place to store objects and you are allowed to take photos. (Original) Uma das melhores atrações de São João e ainda é gratuita!

Solar dos Neves is a historic house that still belongs to the family of former president Tancredo. The city's charm lies in the integration of old buildings with the rest of the surroundings, all well signposted, with beautiful facades, cafes and shops everywhere. Additionally, visitors can climb the stairways of Nossa Senhora das Merces Church and explore Nossa Senhora do Carmo Church. There are ongoing restoration efforts on a beautiful building in the area as well.
(Translated by Google) The Solar dos Neves is located in the city's historic center, at Praça Emb. Gastão da Cunha 98, in the center of São João del Rei/MG, the former residence of former president Tancredo Neves, and stands out for its architectural beauty with colonial features and beautiful façade. An imposing and very well-preserved building, the Solar is not open to tourists and only its façade can be appreciated, but even so, the place is a point of great tourist flow and one of the city's main postcards. (Original) O Solar dos Neves fica localizado no Centro Histórico da cidade, na Praça Emb.

(Translated by Google) I was at Solar dos Neves on a Saturday afternoon, but it was not open to visitors. From what I could tell, the place is not open to the public. Even so, the façade is very beautiful and worth a visit. Solar dos Neves is an imposing 19th-century mansion located in Largo do Rosário, across from the Church of Nossa Senhora do Rosário. It was the residence of former president Tancredo Neves between 1957 and 1985. Although it is not open to visitors, the place is one of Tiradentes' landmarks and attracts many visitors interested in its history and architecture. (Original) Estive no Solar dos Neves em um sábado à tarde, mas ele não estava aberto para visitação. Pelo que percebi, o local não é aberto ao público. Mesmo assim, a fachada é muito bonita e vale a pena ser apreciada. O Solar dos Neves é um imponente casarão do século XIX, localizado no Largo do Rosário, em frente à Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário. Foi residência do ex-presidente Tancredo Neves entre 1957 e 1985. Embora não seja aberto para visitação interna, o local é um dos cartões-postais de Tiradentes e atrai muitos visitantes interessados em sua história e arquitetura .

(Translated by Google) The Solar dos Neves, in São João del-Rei, Minas Gerais, is a historic 19th-century house right in the city center, on the square in front of the Rosário Church. It became famous because it was the residence of Tancredo Neves, that incredibly important Minas Gerais politician, from 1957 to 1985. These days, the mansion is closed to visitors, but the facade is incredibly charming and makes for incredible photos. It's a classic tourist spot: you can walk through the historic center, see the imposing, well-preserved mansion, take some photos, and then enjoy a stroll through the local shops and cafes. In other words: even without going inside, it's worth including on your itinerary to experience the historic atmosphere of São João del-Rei. (Original) O Solar dos Neves, em São João del-Rei (MG), é uma casa histórica do século XIX, bem no centrinho da cidade, na praça em frente à Igreja do Rosário. Ele ficou famoso porque foi a residência do Tancredo Neves, aquele político mineiro superimportante, de 1957 até 1985. Hoje em dia, o casarão não abre pra visitação, mas a fachada é super charmosa e rende fotos incríveis. É um ponto turístico clássico: você passa pelo centro histórico, vê o casarão imponente todo preservado, tira umas fotos e já aproveita o passeio pelas lojinhas e cafés da região. Ou seja: mesmo sem entrar, vale a pena incluir no roteiro pra sentir o clima histórico de São João del-Rei.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful and well-preserved building, living up to its former glory: the home of President Tancredo Neves. Right across from the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary. Following the same street, between the church and the mansion, you can see the row of (famous) crooked houses on Santo Antônio Street. (Original) Construção linda e muito bem preservada, fazendo jus ao que foi no passado: a casa do presidente Tancredo Neves. Bem em frente à Igreja Nossa Senhora do Rosário. Seguindo pela mesma rua, entre a Igreja e o Solar, é possível ver a sequência das (famosas) casas tortas da Rua Santo Antônio.

(Translated by Google) Located at Praça dos Expedicionários. The Fountain of Legality or Fountain of the Arches. Built in 1834 in Lgo do Rocio, today Lgo Tamandaré. It received the name of Fountain of Legality due to the fact that Vl de S João del Rey was the capital of MG from 05/04 to 22/05 of 1833, within the scope of the Revolt of the Year of Smoke, but the popular name was Fountain of the Arches. The fountain and the entire brick and stone aqueduct were demolished in 1895, by Deliberation of the City Council, in a session of 10/04/1895. After being demolished for a few years, it was rebuilt, without the aqueduct. (Original) Localizado à Praça dos Expedicionários. O Chafariz da Legalidade ou Chafariz dos Arcos. Construído em 1834 no Lgo do Rocio, hj Lgo Tamandaré. Recebeu a denominação de Chafariz da Legalidade em decorrência da Vl de S João del Rey ter sido a capital de MG de 05/04 a 22/05 de 1833, no âmbito da Revolta do Ano da Fumaça, mas o nome popular foi Chafariz dos Arcos. O Chafariz e todo o aqueduto de tijolo e pedra, foram demolidos em 1895, por Deliberação da Câmara Municipal, em sessão de 10/04/1895. Depois de alguns anos demolido, foi reconstruído, sem aqueduto.

Think of a stunning chapel, Capela De Santo Antônio in São João del-Rei (SJDR), Brazil. This architectural marvel is not to be missed, with its rich historical significance and impressive design. Apart from its religious importance, the chapel stands as a gem in our history. Don't miss the opportunity to visit this breathtaking place, which is usually open on Tuesdays. It was a day that marked the truth for everyone to acknowledge and embrace wholeheartedly.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful little church, it's a shame we couldn't go inside, but from the outside it's simple and lovely. The Church of Saint Anthony of Padua, located on Rua das Casas Tortas in São João del-Rei, is a haven of faith and simplicity that enchants with its welcoming atmosphere. Surrounded by historical buildings and cobblestone streets, it stands out for the delicacy of its facade and the serenity of the surrounding environment. Upon entering, the visitor feels a profound peace, as if time there flowed at a different pace. Small and unassuming, the church holds a special value for the local community, being a space of devotion and silence amidst the colonial beauty of the city. Walking there is to experience an authentic piece of the Minas Gerais soul, where history, faith, and tradition meet harmoniously. (Original) Belíssima igrejinha, pena que não conseguimos entrar, mais por fora é simples e linda a Igreja de Santo Antônio de Pádua, localizada na Rua das Casas Tortas, em São João del-Rei, é um recanto de fé e simplicidade que encanta pela sua atmosfera acolhedora. Cercada por construções históricas e ruas de pedra, ela se destaca pela delicadeza de sua fachada e pela serenidade do ambiente ao redor. Ao entrar, o visitante sente uma paz profunda, como se o tempo ali corresse em outro ritmo. Pequena e singela, a igreja guarda um valor especial para a comunidade local, sendo um espaço de devoção e silêncio em meio à beleza colonial da cidade. Caminhar por ali é vivenciar um pedaço autêntico da alma mineira, onde história, fé e tradição se encontram de forma harmoniosa.
Guilherme D — Google review
(Translated by Google) Located on Rua Sto Antonio, s/n - Tejuco. It is a typical 18th century Minas Gerais chapel. Its construction probably dates back to 1764 to 1782. The facade is graceful. An elaborate stripe is found between the two windows with iron balconies, as is common in buildings in the region. The decor is very simple. It must have undergone some renovation at the end of the 18th century, as the title page is dated 1881. (Original) Localizada à Rua Sto Antonio, s/n - Tejuco. É uma típica capela mineira setecentista. Sua construção é, provavelmente, anterior a 1764 a 1782. A fachada é graciosa. Uma tarja elaborada se encontra entre as duas janelas c/balcões de ferro como é comum nas construções da região. A decoração é de muita simplicidade. Deve ter passado por alguma reforma no final do séc XVIII, pois no frontispício se tem a data de 1881.
