First with the Federal Constitution, the Senate was created in 1824, and the Marquis of Santo Amaro its first president. Only in 1826 was held the first legislative session. In the showcases are the urns of silver, which collected the votes of senators. A bronze fountain of 1868, was on the desk of the President of the Senate in the plenary. Two bells summoned the senators to the plenary sessions. Today, we use a bell, which is operated continuously until the beginning of the session. The Brazilian artist Athos Bulcão created in wood, escultório panel in high relief. Marianne Peretti, French artist who is the author of the windows of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Brasilia, has created another panel, glass and sandblasting, titled "The Lake and the Fish."

Two sculptures by French artists, about the year 1890, attracting the attention of visitors: The Thinker of Colinet, and authored by Picaut, Clovis, the Warrior, which honors the first Catholic king of France. Watches and fixtures were part of the collection of the Monroe Palace, headquarters of the 2nd Senate of the Republic when the Rio de Janeiro was the federal capital. Demolished in 1976, the story of three seats in the Senate is the only palace that no longer exists. The Brazilian Villares Decius painted in 1919, the picture that shows a lady symbolizing the Republic. In the bigger picture, King Albert of Belgium - a gift of the Belgian parliament to our Congress at the king's visit to Brazil in 1920.

The Museum displays the Senate, also a painter and tapestry of the landscape artist Burle Marx Sao Paulo. The Naked Woman is a bronze sculpture, the artist Alfredo Ceschiatti (MG). One of the characteristics of his works is the face, always the same in the works of his own, as can be checked in the Angels of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Brasilia and the Statue of Justice outside the Supreme Court.

With nearly 133 years, dating back to 1867, the chairs were the floor of the Conde dos Arcos Palace, the Senate of the Empire, but also the floor of the Monroe Palace, the Senate. Were then made by inmates in Rio de Janeiro. In Hall is one of the most important museum, created by the Spanish artist Gustavo Hastoy with hardwood frame (cedar) and self-relief in plaster and gold leaf.
