Museu da Aviação Naval

Museu da Aviação Naval is the Brazilian Navy’s public museum of naval aviation at the Base Aérea Naval de São Pedro da Aldeia in Rio de Janeiro state. Founded in 2000, it preserves original and replica aircraft, engines, equipment, models, photographs, documents and manuals that trace Brazil’s naval-air history; selected aircraft cabins and models may be opened for immersive visits. The museum is inside an active naval base: group and guided visits require advance arrangements, while current public hours, reception and base-access procedures can change, so verify the Navy’s visitor information before travel. Detailed accessibility provisions are not published. Visitor location: Museu da Aviação Naval, Rua Comandante Ituriel, Bairro Fluminense, Base Aérea Naval de São Pedro da Aldeia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
