This paper aims to analyze the relation of prison memory and History teaching from educational experiences performed at “Espaço São José Liberto”, trying to understand how different voices confront this past when ratifying, deviating and questioning the history there presented. This work will demonstrate some reflections about that discussion, concerning the importance of giving voice to marginalized and silenced characters. The “Espaço São José Liberto” is included in the touristic circuit of the city of Belém, and also receives visits from students of both elementary and university cycles. Nowadays, that space is composed of settings that present the mineralogical potential of Amazon. In the past, it was a monastery and, after, a prison, among other functions, retaining a memory of difficult approach.
