The City Museum is a Brazilian museum in the city of Brasilia, the oldest in the capital, integrating the Três Poderes Cultural Center.



Its design is by Oscar Niemeyer. The museum was designed to preserve the history of the capital's construction, being opened on April 21, 1960 with the presence of President Juscelino Kubitschek, when Guilherme de Almeida read his laudatory poem "Prece Natalícia de Brasília".



On the east façade there is a large head of Juscelino, by José Alves Pedroza, inlaid with the famous phrase of the president: once about the future of my country and I foresee this dawn, with unbreakable faith and an unlimited confidence in your great destiny ". On the west façade, a chronology of the capitalization process between 1789 and 1960 was recorded, highlighting some significant dates. The interior holds historical photos on permanent display, with inscriptions on the walls relating to important events, and there are spaces for temporary exhibitions. The museum was listed by the Federal District government on April 28, 1982.
