Sumario:Since the creation of the first National Museum of Brazil to the present, the concept and objectives of their museums had changed and transformed, according to the prevailing policies of the country. For many years, these policies were exclusive and tended to preserve the Brazilian elite heritage. Since 2000, museological and heritage policies changed toward a democratization of museums and to generate major access of information for its management. However, many local museums must yet deal with a series of budget and human resources problems in order to preserve and divulge the heritage they are protecting. Therefore, the aim of this contribution is to present four different types of museums localized in the Triângulo Mineiro region, in Minas Gerais state (Brazil), to show and discuss their current situations.
