“The fire that destroyed a good part of the collection of the National Museum was a moment of deep sadness, not only for Cariocas but for all Brazilians. Rolé visited the Museum in 2018, just before the fire, gathering about of 600 people. It was one of our most memorable tours because many people had never entered the museum building, even though they go to Quinta da Boa Vista. Go back, although virtually, is a way of reinforcing the importance of preserving the historical heritage, public policies to promote and safeguard and enhance memory, also considering their deletions. Rolé is, since, about this", says professor Rodrigo Rainha. ”
