Courtroom - On the second floor, visitors are acquainted with the courtroom that housed the first judgment sessions of the republican era, when the building was occupied by the STF. The furniture was not taken away from this area, so its original disposition was conserved. There were some disfigurements, but through this restoration it is possible to reproduce the atmosphere of the judgment sessions in the beginning of the 20th century and in the first years of the Electoral Justice, created in 1932 by President Getúlio Vargas.
