This museum is set up in the Palácio da Carçada Palace in the city of Funchal. After being recovered by the Regional Government of Madeira, it hosted several temporary expositions and a permanent one of engravings, designs and watercolours about Madeira along several decades, a look at Madeiran life along the last 150 years.
The house preserves its bourgeois rooms from the 19th century decorated with art nouveau and classic style furniture, “sugar box” style wardrobes, weapons, musical instruments, whale bones and ceramics. The museum also counts with a sacred art room which exhibits a collection of wooden and ivory crosses.
