The building, which was restructured with the intention of providing easy access to all those seeking historical information and appreciation of the objects on display, had its original architecture respected. On the ground floor, there is the temporary exhibition room, which houses historical photographs from the Palmas construction period, mini-auditorium and room with prehistoric artifacts. On the second floor, panels reveal the trajectory of the region's occupation and prominent characters in the struggle for emancipation. The thematic rooms reveal traces of Tocantins' culture, through their folklore, popular festivals and indigenous peoples. The Office of the Governor was maintained in its original lines and reveal the space where important decisions were taken for the consolidation of the Capital and the State.
