Myself and my wife visited the the place and we were so pleased with the owners, their care for the place (and region) and for this piece of aviation and literature history that seems to be fading each day. We had so great discussions about the writer, aspects of our local history and so much more that time just flew pleasantly and made us want to come back again.
It’s really worth it to visit and discover that part of our history and, especially, to share time with such wonderful hosts.

In a hidden place by a federal highiway you can find this place. There will gonna meet the owner who will explain all the history of the the beggining of the aviation and the doundation of the aeropostale and air france. That was the place where the first pilot of the history used to sleep and have partys before they continue their joruneys.

We were in the house where the author of the Pequeno Príncipe stayed to relax a bit of his flights around Brazil.
There you can see and feel a lot of St Exupery's lived history as a pilot of this Aeropostále route.
My wife and I have already arranged to return with friends to return.

I recommend the visit it's a fantastic place!

The museum itself is kind of interesting and the reception good too.
I think the price of 25 reais is a little over what one should expect.
Overall I think it was worthwhile.

José Augusto tells the stories of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in a delightful way (especially in Petrópolis) and made us understand many elements of the story of the Little Prince.
The house is lovely and the entire visit was very special. It was our best surprise in Petrópolis.
