Museu Hering
A corporate museum in the historic plant of the Hering textile company, founded in 1880, telling the story of German immigrant industrialization and Brazil's knitwear industry.
Hering was founded in Blumenau in 1880 by the German-descended Hering brothers and is one of Brazil's oldest apparel brands. The museum occupies a historic factory building in the Bom Retiro district, displaying early looms, products, advertisements and archives of workers' lives. It shows how Blumenau grew from an immigrant farming community into a major textile manufacturing centre. A brand outlet store is next door. Please check the official website for opening hours and whether advance booking is required.
