Wonderful Tour
Aug 2019
I took the time in advance to arrange an English tour of the Supremo Tribunal Federal, and I am very glad that I did. My guide was absolutely wonderful! He told us all about the building itself, as well as the functioning of the court. This modernist beauty serves as one of the three anchors in Three Powers Plaza, and cannot only be admired from the outside. Though perhaps not as stunning as the Palacio Itamaraty, or even the Palacio do Planalto, it is still well worth the (free) visit! Completely recommend.

the building for the Judiciary
Nov 2017 • Solo
By the Praça dos Tres Poderes, the square of the Three Powers, are the buildings, all designed by Oscar Niemeyer, where they are housed: The Legislative (Congresso Nacional), the Executive (Palacio de Planalto) and the Judiciary (Supremo Tribunal Federal).

the court building is the smallest of the three and especially with its outside pillars quite smiliar to the President's Palace of Planalto. All in all an attractive building, as most done by Niemeyer. In front of it is a marble sculpture, one will not miss: 'The Justice' as a seated Lady with a sword over her knees.

Very important building
Sep 2015 • Couples
This building, again designed by Oscar Niemeyer, is probably the most important building in Brazil. It is housing the Supreme Court which is even able to judge the president and its government.

A very majestic building housing the judiciary and next to it are the other buildings for the support staff. Well spread out. Need a car to see it all.

Another iconic achievement of O. Niemeyer
Oct 2014 • Couples
The Federal Supreme Court of Brazil is at one end of Praça dos Tres Poderes (Square of the Three Powers). It was built in 1958 by the architect Oscar Niemeyer. The statue of the sitting lady was made by Alfredo Ceschiatti, a Brazilian sculptor of Italian parentage. It is called 'A Justicia' (To Justice). It represents a blind-folded lady sitting with a sword. It symbolizes the impartiality of justice and its power of achievement.

Can't miss for all attorneys
This is Brasil's highest court and you can get into the chamber. There are halls with pictures of every Brasilian Supreme Court justices. You can even get pictures of yourself making believe you are briefing the court. I took my brother, an American attorney, and he found the architecture interesting and the history fascinating. Admittance is free but restricted. That I know of there are no English tours but they left time for me to translate.
