Caixa Cultural Salvador is a vibrant cultural hub set in a beautifully restored neoclassical building that once served as the headquarters of the Caixa Econômica Federal bank. Located on Rua Carlos Gomes in the heart of Salvador, the center offers a dynamic program of visual arts exhibitions, live performances, film screenings, and educational workshops. Visitors can explore two floors of gallery spaces that showcase both Brazilian and international artists, with a focus on contemporary works and themes relevant to Bahia's rich cultural heritage. The building itself is a highlight, with its grand facade, ornate ironwork, and spacious interiors that blend historic charm with modern exhibition design. The on-site café provides a pleasant spot to relax after browsing the galleries.

Un po' di storia
The building was constructed in 1912 as the headquarters of the Caixa Econômica Federal in Salvador. After the bank moved out, the structure was renovated and reopened in 2012 as a cultural center, part of the Caixa Cultural network across Brazil. It stands as a fine example of early 20th-century eclectic architecture in the city.
