The Anthropological Museum Director Pestana is highly regarded for its role in preserving the history and memory of Ijuí and the surrounding region. Reviewers frequently mention the unique experience of learning about the area's first inhabitants through well-organized and educational exhibits. The staff is consistently described as helpful, attentive, and professional, which enhances the visitor experience. A specific highlight for many is the beautiful exhibition of nativity scenes, which is noted for its organization and aesthetic appeal.

Overall, it is considered a valuable site for acquiring knowledge and exploring regional heritage.
