Catete Palace

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Catete Palace is an urban mansion in Rio de Janeiro's Flamengo neighborhood. The property (several buildings and a large garden) stretches from Rua do Catete to Praia do Flamengo. From 1894 to 1960, it was Brazil's presidential palace and the site of Getulio Vargas's suicide. It now houses a museum and theatre. The Catete subway stop is adjacent.
