Museu da Inconfidência or Museum of the Inconfidência is a history museum dedicated to those who died in a failed rebellion movement Inconfidência Mineira for Brazilian independence from Portugal. Brazilian President Getúlio Vargas decided that those who died in Inconfidência Mineira were martyrs and their remains were brought back from Africa where they had been buried or exiled by the Colonial Portuguese rulers. The museum was built as a tribute to their memory, and a Pantheon was built to house the remains of the rebels in 1942. Located at Barra Funda, São Paulo, Brazil
