Abstract

Two pieces of legislation combined, Law No. 13,146, of July 6, 2015, which establishes the Brazilian Law on the Inclusion of Persons with Disabilities, amending Law No. 11,904, of January 14, the Statute of Museums, guarantee this portion of the population the right to culture and tourism, delegating to museums the duty of implementing the Accessibility to All People Program as an integral part of the Museological Plan. The city of Ouro Preto, Minas Gerais, a prominent tourist destination and mainly its network of museum institutions were analyzed through the application of a Diagnostic Form for Assessing Accessibility in Museums. The results reveal some specific opportunities for accessibility to people with disabilities, but very limited and ineffective, especially in relation to the possibilities. This research is an offshoot of the elective course MUL406 Accessibility in Museums offered since 2011, in the Museology course at the Federal University of Ouro Preto.
