About The Museum of Yesterday

The Rio de Janeiro port has a rich past filled with a history that goes beyond what's taught in the school books. With this app, you can be the investigator of this secret past, from the arrival of Dom João VI to the recent corruption scandals of Operation Car Wash.

Without doubt, no one will ever see Porto Maravilha the same.

It was there that the royal Portuguese family first landed in 1808, where Princess Isabel signed the Lei Aúrea into law in 1808, ending slavery in the country, and where the Republic was proclaimed in 1889. But the port was also the site of the largest slave port in the Americas, receiving more than 700 thousand black slaves, and where President João Goulart staged the Comício da Central, a mass rally used as an excuse to carry out the 1964 military coup.

These and other facts can be discovered while exploring the port on foot with the app, as guided by a current map as well as a map from 1830.

Unlike other applications, the Museum of Yesterday does not allow you to zoom in or out or otherwise move the map. The application only shows what is close to you. To discover the port's secrets, you must go to the closest marked point on the map. The more you walk, the more parts of the map will be conquered.

For anyone not in Rio de Janeiro, the app allows for a "virtual tour." Every 50 meters, the user can access a new story by walking wherever she may be.

With the app, you can:

+ Discover 160 stories in the port region

+ See where you are on a current map or with another which shows how the streets looked in 1830

+ Find 20 ghosts: important and horrifying moments from Brazil's history which are not registered anywhere, yet continue haunting the streets of Porto Maravilha

+ Choose from five "tours": The Corruption Tour; the Terror Tour; The Samba Tour; the Ghosts Tour, of that which haunts downtown Rio; and the the Brazil History Express Tour.

+ Hear excerpts from the book 1808, by the journalist Laurentino Gomes (Globo), and slave announcements published in Rio newspapers from the 19th century, as read by singer Anelis Assumpção.

+ Accumulate points and medals as a reward for your conquests

+ Save all the secrets you've already uncovered to refer to later

+ Discover where you are, with a temporary zoom
