Building began in 1938 and finished in 1964, and since 1970 it has been open to visitors as an art centre while remaining the government's winter seat. The palace displays more than 1,800 works of art, including pieces by leading Brazilian artists, and collections of applied arts and crafts. Beside it stand a small chapel and a Japanese-style bell tower.
